It has been a weird 2 weeks here. I didn’t post at all last weekend because we left work early on Friday and drove up to Breckenridge to enjoy a weekend away and man did we enjoy it. We hit the hot tub like crazy and drank way too much, while making sure we movedContinue reading “Weigh in day 5/10/13 -.6, 52.2 lbs down 37.8 lbs to go”

Riverside Trail A Breckenridge *Repeater* Hike 5/4/13
When I booked our weekend in Breckenridge a couple of months ago I thought that we would be able to do some higher hikes by this point in time. Of course that was before the 5 weeks of blizzards and the 4-5 feet of snow Breckenridge got during April. The last storm finished dropping aContinue reading “Riverside Trail A Breckenridge *Repeater* Hike 5/4/13”
Belcher Hill Trail *Repeater Hike*, White Ranch Park – Golden Co 4/27/13
There is that moment every week when I commit to a trail and I always hope that the weather will let us do it. This week the trail I committed to was too high up after yet another 2 day snow storm on Monday and Tuesday. All week I debated how smart it would beContinue reading “Belcher Hill Trail *Repeater Hike*, White Ranch Park – Golden Co 4/27/13”
Weigh in Day 4/26/13 No Change…. 51.6 LBS down 38.4 left to go
No loss this week so I am trying to focus on the fact that I didn’t gain anything either. The weather this week started out very discouraging for a hiker, with more snow on Monday and Tuesday but it did warm up so nicely that by Friday I was practically bouncing on my toes waitingContinue reading “Weigh in Day 4/26/13 No Change…. 51.6 LBS down 38.4 left to go”
Bergen Peak Trail, Elk Meadow Open space *AGAIN* 4/20/13
This week has been tough on so many levels for so many reasons and I know I am not the only one struggling to find balance and meaning. I can tell you that the only thing on our minds yesterday was getting out hiking and getting as high as we could (altitude wise of course),Continue reading “Bergen Peak Trail, Elk Meadow Open space *AGAIN* 4/20/13”
weigh in day 4/19/13 -.6, 51.6 lbs lost 38.4 lbs to go
I think so many people are just confused and a little lost this week after so much tragedy, I know I am. I found myself tied to the tv awaiting the details of the bombing and then details of the horrible explosion in Texas. As I watched all the horror, I think like everyone else,Continue reading “weigh in day 4/19/13 -.6, 51.6 lbs lost 38.4 lbs to go”
Hiking out of a Hangover – Deer Creek Canyon 4/13/13
Since I started hiking to healthy over a year ago I have been really good about not drinking on Friday nights before our hike, while it is my cheat day I never want to run the chance of a hangover hindering my hike on Saturday. That’s not to say that I still don’t get myContinue reading “Hiking out of a Hangover – Deer Creek Canyon 4/13/13”
Weigh in Day 4/12/13 -.8, 51lbs down 39 lbs left to go
Another small loss, but a loss none the less! It was a tough week for a weird reason, I wanted to celebrate reaching this milestone but my typical way of celebrating is to eat which isn’t the way to go this time. So all I focused on was not going over my calories each dayContinue reading “Weigh in Day 4/12/13 -.8, 51lbs down 39 lbs left to go”
Bergen Peak Trail + – Elk Meadow Jefferson County Open Space 4/6/13
I am on cloud 9, seriously 50 pounds lost on my weigh in yesterday and then today we kicked major butt on our hike. We did Bergen Peak last August and to be honest it was insanely tough then, like I was practically in tears on the way down thinking “why the hell did IContinue reading “Bergen Peak Trail + – Elk Meadow Jefferson County Open Space 4/6/13”
Weigh in Day 4/5/13 -.6, 50.2 LBS down, 39.8 LBS to go
A .6lb loss is not monumental but it is just enough to get me over 50LBS lost!!!!! It is a great milestone to hit and I have been bouncing around on my toes all day telling anyone who will listen, well maybe just those who know that I am working on it because it wouldContinue reading “Weigh in Day 4/5/13 -.6, 50.2 LBS down, 39.8 LBS to go”
