Injustice

in 2008 Chicago Marathon,Full of Happiness

I’m running close to 40 miles a week. I’m sprinting. I’m lifting weights. I’m riding . . . and yet I can’t get rid of that effing muffin top! If I had trained like I am now when I was in my 20s I would have been kicking some serious ass.

Now I just have ass.

What is this “package” you speak of????? (I still can’t email you back on your comments to me…)

Hitting plateaus is fairly common. I have hit one every year for 2 or 3 years. Finally busted through it this year. Don’t give up. – BTW, not implying anything but for me the key was finally really changing what I was eating and not “rewarding” myself with beer and ice cream after hard efforts.

Also…having ass is not a bad thing. It’s all the rage. Besides…couldn’t tall you the last I had ass.

…..I’ve said too much…

Kick ass, have an ass, be an ass, whatever. You’re a fox. Don’t sweat it. :)

That’s what happens when you have babies…
I out-”abed” a couple of 20-somethings in the gym on Monday, but I will NEVER have a six-pack like THEY will sport. Dammit!

Oh- great marathon mileage by the way!

LMAO……Reading glasses, muffin top, A$$… Does it get any better?

Ha! Yeah, muffin top. Post-baby, mine has been sticking around, regardless of how fast or how far I run. Bleck!

I have no abs and I have no babies. What can my excuse be?

Oh, and what are the things called that happen at the same level as love handles but on your back, not on your side?

I didn’t notice a muffin of any sort in your videos and ass is back, baby!

Just keep doing what you are doing. You are strong and healthy and totally babalicious.

wearing glasses is not the worst thing about getting old….it’s just that I can’t remember what the worst thing is!

Run 100 miles a week and it will go away.

Sorry.

The stop wearing those “low-rise, hip-hugger pants, or midriff-baring tops that are too small.”

16 marta September 17, 2008 at 9:58 pm

17 marta September 17, 2008 at 11:18 pm

Come run THE BIRD and all your troubles will be washed away :-) )

18 Ewe the Dewd September 18, 2008 at 7:41 am

I don’t see a muffin top. At least not like Kim’s. You’re just midriff challenged, and will be kicking some serious ass in Chicago!

19 BettyBetty September 18, 2008 at 5:12 pm

I hear ya! I say the same damn thing. I did feel better viewing the wiki page…I don’t have it THAT bad.

20 Chris September 19, 2008 at 5:14 pm

I’ve tried to outtrain the damn muffin top. It doesn’t work until you really start cutting out the calories. At least in my experience.

I love the glasses!
