I have been working out pretty much every day, and keeping on, or within points (using the allowance points).
AAAAAAAAAAAAAaand I feel pretty awesome. Last week I lost 1 lb. Which is fine with me. Better than gaining. With weight training it's never an all lose scenario. I'm hoping to have lost at least another 1lb this week too. The accountability is great, but it's also really nerve wracking. Ultimately the main goal is fitness.
Hopefully I'll be in running shape by the end of the next two months.
Here's how I'm going to do it:
Two times a week I am going to run in intervals. 35 min. Walking for 5, running for 3- then walking for 3 and at random inclines. Eventually I'll work my way to running for 5, walking for 3...and then 2 and then just running straight though. We'll see how long that takes but I'm willing to take this slow and steady.
I've been hoping that I could fit in some yoga, but my schedule hasn't allowed that. And the yoga center I love is about 20 minutes away, so I don't always want to go that far away.
On the food front (which I've blogged about on eatsgrass)- I've been obsessed with heirloom tomatoes, and the harvest that comes with this time of year. :) And big salads. There are so many delicious foods that make me feel so much better...and they're all in season!!
More updates soon. Hopefully I'll have lost at my weigh in on Thursday.
Any tips on running or becoming a runner?
