A friend of mine wanted me to meet her at a new Tijuana Flats that just opened and I said NO! This is HUGE because Tijuana Flats is an absolute favorite of mine and I’m usually there at least once a week. I told her why though and she understood.

Hungry this afternoon. Not sure why.
Dinner: White Bean and Garlic Stew; brown rice - core
I was going to exercise today. I wanted to do Debbie, but I went and picked up the baby before I went and got my son from school. Then I wanted to take a nap but couldn’t. Really, I’m just being lazy and sitting on the couch folding laundry. I have to get a gift for my son’s teacher (tomorrow is the last day of school) so I thought I’d walk to the store after dinner and my husband gets home. It’s about 5 blocks away.

Okay, I did exercise today. I ended up going to the gym! YAY!! I did 20 minutes on the treadmill, but walked it at 3.6. I ran the last 2 minutes at 5.0 and I could have kept going for awhile, but I didn’t want to push it since tomorrow is my running day. I’ll probably up the speed tomorrow. I was proud of myself though. Then I did some leg weights. Whew…..

I hadn’t heard of Tijuana Flats. I like Mexican too. It can be hard at mex. restaurants to find things that are low fat. Opting for the taco salad instead was GRRREAT! Some of my favorite aspects of mexican are the tomatoes, the heat, and the cilantro. All of which are fine sans the boat load of cheese that is normally on american-mexican stuff.
You have a great start on c25k - I envy what seems to be the very little pain that you are having! I am guessing it is from the volleyball and stuff. Your legs are probably strong. I was griping constantly for a while. There is something about the first day of the next week that gets addictive, I think. That is mainly why I am looking forward to it! I need a fix!
The second and third day are ok and I feel good about them. But nothing is like that first day and the feeling of breaking down a barrier. I do worry about 5 minutes though.
