Well, I am back from quite the week at Carolina Cross Connection with my youth. Never a dull moment I must admit!! The staff of Loy White was a saving grace! Great group of kids running it this summer:
So, camp food can be a great thing or a total bust. Fortunately and unfortunately we were blessed with lovely cooks who's philosophy was when it has enough butter...add more!! Of course it made it taste wonderful, but my jeans didn't so much like it. Breakfasts included: bacon, sausage, eggs, hash browns, biscuits, gravy, and french toast. Then of course for dinners we had: fried chicken, lasagna, sweet potato fries, taco salads, hamburgers, more breaded chicken, etc. Soooooo, you can imagine why my jeans are now yelling at me. However, much to my surprise the scale only said I gained .5lbs while I was gone!!! Something tells me the excessive sweating because 4 or our 5 days were spent working outside helped with the lack of weight gain. On Thursday we were in direct sun all day long, and by the time we left instead of looking for spots that had sweat on them on our clothes, it was finding the little spots that were dry!!
Good clue that you are hot and sweating....a little...we had a 6 gallon water cooler full to the top, and between the 6 of us in our work team in one day drank the WHOLE thing dry, and not one of us had to pee all day!!!! I rest my case.
Not much "Skinny" on the workout lately unfortunately. I took my running shoes and was prepared to be up running every morning at camp before it got too hot. I only got up to run 2 mornings, and it was only 1.5 miles. Nothing to write home about....oh wait....I am writing home about it. I digress, my butt is SO excited to be back in the gym this week. Though I hadn't really gained but .5lbs, I just feel better when I am working out more consistently!!
The countdown begins until the Hit the Brixx run next month!!!
Time to really buckle down and get my butt in gear!!!
So glad to be back, and ready to get back to business!!!
