Good afternoon all! Well I weighed in this morning - 323.8. It is down from last Monday, but still not back to the 319 from 2 weeks ago. Oh well. You know I am making a new decree -
"Thou shall not weigh on Monday's"
I think I am still carrying around some water and bloat! I am going to start weighing on Wednesday's and reporting then. I am tired of getting discouraged because I ate a little too heavy on the weekend. Yes, it happened again this weekend. My parents are BAD food companions! They encourage you to eat like a rolly poly! Anyway! KSTS and I did run, but we ate not good - but we didn't eat awful either. Anyway today I am eating well and back on track!
It is super hot here right now! So we have decided to start running in the mornings before work. I was not able to this morning because I had to be at my office quite early, but tomorrow we are waking up at 4:45 am to go run! It sucks to wake up that early, and it sucks to run period, but I will say that I feel amazing afterward! It is like when we were doing early morning spin classes - it was so hard to get motivated and get in there, but after you get take a shower and are on the way to work I feel like dancing! I guess it is the endorphins. Whatever it is we are going to run in the morning and I can't believe I am admitting it, but I can't wait!
Out of curiosity has everyone been trying to move more? Did anyone take up my dried bean idea??? Put 5 dried beans in your pocket in the morning then try to walk for ten minutes several times during the day, after a ten minute session throw out a bean - then when all the beans are gone you have accomplished something without even having to try hard! How bout doing ten push ups and ten sit-ups a night before your shower? That would take like literally 3 minutes - even if you do girly ones! Then over time I bet you could build up and do more and more! What if you just tried to add one every week? Just a thought on trying to do better and move a little more. I know it is super hard to commit to an hour of working out or even 30 minutes, but a couple minutes a day is not going to kill you!
So just an update. Week four of couch to 5K was brutal so we are going to repeat week four again this week. Week 5 is still a little daunting. So tomorrow at the ass crack of dawn we will be warming up then running for 3 mins, walk for 90 seconds, run for 5 minutes, walk for 2.5 mins, then repeat! Hopefully we will feel good this week and be ready to move on! I will report in again later in the week my peeps!
