Catching Up Again

I've fallen out of the habit of blogging right now...prob because I'm not doing much crossfit right now and my workouts are pretty sporadic. Let's see, some highlights:
1. Last week :
I was able to get in lots of short runs...4 days in a row I think. Definitely a record for the most consecutive days of running in over a year. AND I finally ran 4 miles at a 10 min pace...4 miles at 39:40 I was thrilled! Also, last week I was able to DL 165 three times which was another nice improvement for me. And most exciting of all, I'm finally weighing below 150#!!! Barely, but I'll take it!
2. This week:
Trying to improve my nutrition since my workouts are inconsistent. I decided to give the Zone a try after having the most supportive husband and friends. Kristen is zoning alongside me and something about having a buddy alongside me is helping me stick to it. Today has only been Day 4 but she checks up on me nightly. It has been an experiment finding the right amount of food with nursing, exercising, etc. I seem to be happiest between 14 and 15 blocks right not. I'm pretty irritable and hungry at 13, but since I've got 13 lbs to lose I don't want to eat 15 on days I'm not able to workout. Ellie took bikini pics of me a few days ago. I'll be excited to post 30 days from now when I see some positive results.
Still sticking with lifting about 3 days a week and cardio as much as I can.
I walked the Greenway with Nat, Jen, Kat, Dymphna last-minute yesterday. Ellie and Brooke pretty much walked the 4 miles of steep hills as well. So proud of those girlies.
