How Weight Watchers fits into Life

Mental

11 April, 2011 RenéeBody, Mind8 Comments on Mental

My brain is against me lately. Not just with regards to my body, with everything. It was an emotional week for me to say the least. I was headhunted again and this time for a company very close to where…

What to do when you are not dieting

18 March, 2011 RenéeFood, Self2 Comments on What to do when you are not dieting

I’m officially not dieting, though my brain is still in diet mentality. That’s years and years of conditioning. Like growing up Catholic and then giving it up, the rituals stay with you regardless of whether you want them there or…

Now that we’ve got that out of the way

17 March, 2011 RenéeBody, Food, Fun Stuff, Self4 Comments on Now that we’ve got that out of the way

How about an update? My vacation was fabulous for the most part. I had not been back to New Mexico for nearly 5 years though I had a slight taste of the Southwest 2 years ago when Mr. Lowfatpie and…

The Diet Mentality

16 March, 201116 March, 2011 Renéeepiphany, Mind, Self20 Comments on The Diet Mentality

Disclaimer: This is not a happy post, but rather a bitter one. It’s something I realized, while I was on holiday in the States, that I am still completely brainwashed from following Weight Watchers for so long. I know the…

Limbo

22 February, 2011 RenéeSelf, Weight Watchers7 Comments on Limbo

I knew I hadn’t written for a while, but I didn’t actually realise just how long until this weekend. I tried to write on the weekend, and now I’m glad I didn’t publish, because, well, it’s not completely what I…

The Sports Doctor

26 January, 2011 RenéeBody, Self16 Comments on The Sports Doctor

I went to the sports doctor (is that the right term? here in NL it is but I’m not sure what you would call these professionals in North America or the UK for example) this morning and it was an…

Determination

14 January, 2011 Renéeepiphany, Mind, Self6 Comments on Determination

I hear this occasionally, that I have an amazing amount of determination and trust me I find that a very serious compliment. I used to think (because maybe I had been told many times) I was stubborn, rather than determined.…

Positive Post: Monday Reflections and Ten Things

10 January, 201110 January, 2011 RenéeMind, Self7 Comments on Positive Post: Monday Reflections and Ten Things

Last week was a mixture of the good stuff and the not so good stuff. Stress is a fairly common factor in my life at the moment, at least when it comes to work. It was probably the worst week…

I had an awesome post written up for today and I just ran out of time and couldn’t post it. I got some great help from my loverlies on Twitter and I just wanted to share how I’m working on…

Positive Post: 1st Monday of the Year Edition

3 January, 2011 RenéeSelf6 Comments on Positive Post: 1st Monday of the Year Edition

Usually Mondays are fairly tough to get cranked up. A typical Sunday night is to struggle with sleep and/or wake up every few hours and then when it is actually time to get up, there is more struggling taking place.…

Running on Strava – Let’s connect!

Fresh out of the oven, or crusty old pie, you choose:

Team Pie

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.

Contact Me

I love to comments and hearing from people regarding pretty much anything, so please feel free to contact me at any time! I'm not a professional by any means, but I love to share stories, tips and tricks, commiserations, celebrations and of course a good slice of pie (if you've got one on offer)
