I have a new blog! www.staceeadams.com
I’ll be over there for now.
Weight Loss Wednesday was interrupted by the pollen last week but I’m happy to report that I officially lost 10 lbs over the last few weeks. I won’t be doing these posts anymore, but I’m not done losing weight and plan to keep running for the next few weeks. I might even do a 10k in April. Thanks for all of your encouragement and support. It was super helpful!
See you at my new site!
Weekly Loss: 1.2
Total Loss: 9.7
Weekly Goal: I’m so, so close to reaching my weekly goal of losing 10 pounds! I’ve hit a wall with running. I always go through this when training. Getting past 3 miles is so tough. Once you pass 4, it’s like something clicks and your body just takes off! My goal this week is to run 3 miles. I’ll do my best to reach it!
Workouts:
March 7- 2.60 mile run, 3.10 mile walk
March 8- 2.60 mile run
March 9- Rest Day
March 10- Does eating doughnuts and cake for Normer’s birthday count? 
March 11- Worked in the yard for a few hours.
March 12- 2.2 mile run
March 13- 3.10 mile walk
See you next week when I’m skinnier!
Weekly Loss: 2.2 lb
Total Loss: 8.5 lb
Weekly Goals: This was a great week! I think something is wrong with my scale! In fact, I might not have gained as much as I thought I did last week. I’m getting a new battery to see if that helps. I didn’t do a good job of keeping track of my workouts. I did run more than I logged but I don’t remember.
I’m letting myself have a few more treats now but I’m still trucking on with eating mainly fruits and veggies. My goal this week is to reach the 10 pounds lost mark! Yippee!!
Workouts:
Feb 29th- Rest Day
March 1st- 2.45 mile run, 3.15 mile walk, 20 minute zumba!

Booo!! This wasn’t a good week. I’ve been running like crazy but kinda fell off the wagon when it came to my food choices. Apparently, I can’t have any carbs or sugar!! I stocked up on veggies at the farmers market yesterday, so here’s to a week of good eating! I still have 31 days to reach my goal to be in my 130′s.
Workouts:
Feb 22- 1.64 mile run
Feb 23- 1.64 mile run and 3 mile walk
Feb 24- Rest Day

See you next Wednesday when I’m (hopefully) skinnier!
Weekly Loss: 2.2 lbs!!!!!!
Total Loss: 6.3 bs
Weekly Goal: I reached my goal this week! I’m in the 140′s! It rained a ton this week so I wasn’t able to go on as many runs as I would have liked. I have been working so hard on eating healthy but have certainly had moments of bad choices. I am still avoiding as much sugar, dairy and bread as possible. However, I give myself a few breaks a week. I think the biggest change I made was breakfast. My standard breakfast of the past 5 years has been a bagel with cream cheese and a chai tea latte. Now I’m eating an apple and banana with peanut butter and my new favorite cereal Ezekial 4:9. I found it in the green aisle at Publix. It was $7 whole dollars but is totally worth it! It is 100% flourless and has a ton of protein. And no sugar! I couldn’t eat it without adding honey or peanut butter to it though. It is pretty bland. But it’s good for you! I’m also drinking french press coffee with a tablespoon of sugar and dash of creamer. This is the one luxury I can’t give up!
My goal this week is to lose at least another 2 pounds and bump up my mileage on my runs.
I plan to keep up the weekly weigh in’s until March 31st. My goal is to see 13_ on the scale by the end of March.

See you next Wednesday when I’m skinnier!
After a dreary rainy weekend, we decided to get out and hike on President’s Day. The weather was gorgeous!! I borrowed a backpack for Badge and we set out for Kennesaw Mountain. I’ve never hiked it and was looking forward to seeing the views of Atlanta. We decided to hike to Pigeon Hill which was a 6.5 mile trail.
Badge was so excited about spending the day outside.

It was so nice to spend time as a family. And of course Lulu was there with us too!
2012 has been beating me down lately but I’m hopeful for a better year.
Come back here tomorrow for a very exciting Weigh-In Wednesday. I don’t even believe it!!
Weekly Loss: 0.6 lb
Total Loss: 4.1 lbs
Goal this week: Ack! I was SO close to reaching my goal. Just .8 lbs away from getting to my 140′s. We were traveling this weekend, so I didn’t get as much exercise on top of eating fast food at the airport. I started running as of today so I am confident I will more than reach my goal this week! I also cut out sugar, bread and dairy. It is soooo hard. I am a complete sugar addict. It has been a total bummer to watch Normer eat ice cream while I have a banana with peanut butter. I’m staying strong though!
See you next Wednesday when I’m skinnier!
