Gunna run a half marathon

Ask me anything   Progress   

I'm 21 years old and was hoping to run my first half marathon in march 2013- unfortunately I have a knee injury IN BOTH KNEES so I had to drop out, but I'm on the waiting list for physiotherapy and the plan is to run my own half marathon by the end of 2013!
Fresh motivation. I will do this.
I love cooking and more than that I love taking photos of what I cook, if anything takes your fancy and you want the recipe- just ask!

(Height 5'7

CW 140-145 lbs

LW 135 lbs

HW 170 lbs

got rid of my GW/UGW as since I've started toning and squating my weights going up and my measurements are going down... my goal is to be able to do a handstand and all those other cool handstand related positions and hey, I wouldn't mind if I had a flat stomach and an ass that won't quit ;)

I laughed out loud because this is me and Will, reblogging so I remember to show him later :D

“English cucumber”

Wait what?! What’s a normal cucumber in America of it’s not an ‘English’ cucumber? I don’t know what to search to find out where the distinction comes…

I’ve gained quite a bit of weight in the last couple of weeks (fat not muscle, about 6lbs) but actually I’ve been feeling a little better about the way I look (obviously not all the time)
Last week I ate that burger and THE WHOLE plate of chips for lunch, I also ate other food during that day and it WAS NOT a binge and it was my choice.
I never thought I’d be in that position again and I think that’s sad, to just ‘eat normally’ without feeling guilty or like I needed to fix it. I hadn’t realised how suffocating my eating habits and thoughts had become but let me tell you now, that burger was AMAZING, any slight anxiety was worth it and it was very freeing.

I do hate that I’ve gained weight and I don’t always love how I look but maybe I will concentrate on making sure my skin is moisturised and that I cleanse my face more often and brush my hair and SMILE MORE if I want to look ‘better’ because being skinny isn’t the same as being pretty and if my REAL concern is being pretty then that is definitely a more productive move!
Just had to share the self love and body positivity realisation :) xx

Update

Went swimming this morning, was faced with a free buffet lunch today! But they had fruit so I ended up just eating a TONNE of pineapple melon and grapes- maybe too much but at least I didn’t end up just eating samosas and other various fried things. I bought soup to have for lunch instead ;) missed yoga :( but I’m planning on running OR starting the 30DS tonight! Decisions…

Hmm

I’ve been slowly falling off the wagon recently- various food related events mainly. Well enough is enough, when I wake up tomorrow I’m going swimming or running and then I’m doing yoga at lunch time, and you guys can hold me to that!
No more binges, no more excuses and no more feeling sick from over eating! Drinking pleanty, going to eat ACTUAL (healthy) meals so I don’t binge and everything’s gunna work out… Wish me luck!

RAGE;
My run was cut short today as some absolute fuckwit decided to not let me pass and dance around me on the pavement (what the actual fuck?!) 
I was THIS |——| close (literally and physically) from punching him in the balls but I managed to stop myself, deep breath and run on. 
For the next 10 mins every fibre in my body wished that I had smashed his lights in, but I didn’t and for that I am thankful…
