What’s that saying about the “best laid plans”? I had some good plans for this week. Sunday mid-day I already had planned and prepared my food for Monday. I tracked, ate well, drank my water. I even made cupcakes with…

Oh Boy. I don’t know how else to describe the last week. Remember I said this: Improvement areas are: gym, and my 100 pushups and 200 sit-ups programs. I did not get to Day 3 of Week 1/ Week 3…

Without Even Trying

Today is the 9th day in a row that I’ve done some sort of activity. Now that isn’t much really if you think about it. I mean, if you want to talk about someone making a an effort to move…

Taking A Break and Reclaiming my life

Perhaps it makes no sense, the title of this blog. Because of course when you are hard-core on program and losing weight you are already reclaiming your life right? Because when you are overweight you can’t do all of those…

Am I happy?

Mish asked me if I was happy with myself in my Trigger Unhappy post. I just want to say, yes, I am happy. Or at least I am a lot happier than I was a few years ago. There…

Lost and Gained

Daily 09/11 – What Now?

9 November, 2009 Pinky @lowfatpieWeight Watchers

OK. I am incredibly bored now. One can only lay around like a lazy sod for so long. As much as I LOVE being lazy and doing nothing, this really sucks. Moreover, I’ve done silly things like read stories on…

Hey! I’m Renée, 55 years old; I started running just to lose some weight and in the meantime found out that running changes pretty much everything. My favorite running partner, Ron (56), started running just to support me, but he found out he actually had a talent for it and consequently has run over 28 marathons in the span of 6 years with 3 of them being World Majors.

This blog is about running, fitness, mental health, travel and, though I am trying to get out of diet mentality, I may still talk about weight/ weight loss. Sometimes a combination of all, sometimes not. And not always in that order.

Running and fitness keep me sane, travel is my passion.We live in the Netherlands – Mr Pie is Dutch and I am American and Dutch, now living here over half of my life.
