Ouch!

I hurt! I have run 25 miles in the last 48 hours and my poor legs feel it. I guess it may be a good hurt, but I just hope it goes away before my race this weekend.

In other news, I have recently started eating meals from My Fit Foods and I can't say enough about them! My friend Jen lost 6 lbs last week as part of their 21 day challenge! I don't know if I will do the challenge because it is super strict (only eat their food, no caffeine or alcohol, for 21 straight days), but I do plan to eat most of my lunches and dinners from them for a good while (my breakfast usually is decently healthy). This food is very healthy and actually tastes good! It is so nice leaving my workout at night knowing I have good food waiting for me at home! My favorites so far are the Turkey Pasta and the Killuh Green Chicken. The chicken is served with quinoa - something I've read lots about lately but wouldn't have ever gone to the store and bought to cook myself. Don't tell anyone, but I think I'm actually eating a few veggies with these meals as well! As far as price, it can be seen as a little pricey compared to the bowl of cereal or popcorn I might have on a regular night for dinner, but it is cheaper than eating out at the same time. I got 10 meals yesterday for $58. I guess it is also nice because it tastes like restaurant food, not that yummy bowl of cereal or popcorn or cardboard lean cuisine.

You need to come to the house. I've got a killer black bean and quinoa recipe that I'm trying to get Mrs. Greyhound to try. I'll audition it on both of you at once.

Ironman in verse

This is what I wrote and secretly put under everyone's doors tonight: The big day is almost here! Long it will be, but have no fear. You have put in miles and miles And will finish amidst numerous smiles. The hard work is over and done. Now is the time for nothing but fun. May your spirits be high throughout the day, And may nothing come along to stand in your way. Ironman is as much about the journey as the destination, And you will be rewarded for all of your determination. Hand-in-hand we will all jump in, Eagerly treading water as we wait to begin. At 7am the cannon will blast But be sure not to go out too fast. The cool water will run over your face, As you are now committed to the race. The Rural Bridge will seem so far away But keep those negative thoughts at bay. Once you turn around and head west To the Mill Ave. Bridge you go, trying your best. 2.4 miles will be over before you know it, And you will start to realize your thoughts of Iron are truly legit. On to the bike, f...

Still here. Still infertile.

Sigh.  Here we are again.  We knew all along we would be able to start the process for baby #2 when Sloane was nine months old.  I had said we did not necessarily want kids that close together, but knew just because we started then did not mean we would get pregnant then.  If I had only known how true that is becoming.  Silly us had started having visions of three kids.  The only way we can have three kids is to have things go smoothly, not lose embryos, and not lose time.  Well, so far we have lost an embryo and a lot of time in the quest for our next baby. I breezed through prep for our transfer in early May.  The stress load was so much less than before because I thought we had it figured out.  We had Sloane as a great distraction.  My lining was better than it has ever been before - by far.  Then, the day after Mother's Day, I found out it did not work.  And I was immediately thrown back into the depths of infertility hell....
