August was an mediocre month for me.
I ran a half marathon, but only ran 40 miles the whole month while gaining 3 lbs (well I lost 2 lbs, gained 5 lbs, lost 4 lbs, gained 4 lbs..so I have a net gain of 3 lbs). I had good weeks and bad weeks. And I ended up at 190.8 on September 1st, UGH.
Goal for September is to get back in the 180s, I’d like to be around 185 when I run my next long distance race. I guess its not the worst thing in the world, its not like I gained 20 lbs. In fact, if skip a meal or two if I eat right and get back to a normal running and workout schedule I’ll be there quicker than Takeru Kobayashi can eat a hot dog.
So this is what I wore the Month of August and the respective sizing. What was your favorite? What did you not like?

I was going to say you look best in dresses and skirts, but then I saw how you rock those Ann Taylor Loft wide-leg pants. Wow. That really works.
The aqua-dress and several others stand out as exceptional. They present you beautifully.
Nice roundup!
My favorite is
Pants and Scarf Belt- Ann Taylor Loft (16)
Shirt- Three Dots (L)
I am sorry to hear that.
Well, sometimes you win others you lose. I am sure you will leave those pounds behind!
Hard to choose a favorite this month. I love the red dress/green jacket look, and that blue leaf print dress is beautiful. I think my fave though is the Pearl Jam tee look. You rocked that!
