Shall We Shrink??

I did it! I was aiming to go for a run tonight, but I felt like CRAP and had resigned myself to the fact that I was going to skip out on it. Well, some drugs and a relaxing movie later (by relaxing I mean in bed ALL by myself while hubby made dinner and kept the boys entertained!) I was feeling like maybe I could do it. So, I ran(for the third day in a row!). And ran. Til it was too dark to see, anyway. It felt like I ran forever, but I logged it and it turned out to be a little over a mile and a half. In my defense it is hilly I am just so happy that I ran it without stopping!!! If I just add a little bit every couple of days maybe I can grow up and be like getupnow I read in another blog about 21 day goals… where you have to meet your goal 21 straight days in a row and if you fail you start over. Well, I am going to make a few of those.

-No fast food. Period.

-No candy. I know, blasphemy this close to Halloween, but too bad!! (I will be partaking of the cookies we bake though!)

-3 water bottles per day. No excuses and no diet coke til it’s done!

-Some form of exercise EVERY day, even if it is just half an hour.

Seems easy enough. 21 days (assuming I make it!) will end just as I am about to leave to go home, so maybe I can make some good progress before my trip. I have decided to get rid of all my weight training for now. I have a friend who is a trainer and she was telling me that I gain muscle WAY too easily, so if I want to get smaller and actually lose weight to stick to just cardio for a while. And, even though it goes against EVERYthing I have read, I am going to try it because it does kinda make sense. I am built really muscular naturally. Well, except I am going to keep doing this pushup challenge because my hubby is doing it with me. One of these days I’ll be able to do a crap ton of pushups, even if I will look like Arnie by the time I get there.

Food was good today, for the first time in a long time I can say I didn’t have anything bad… not one thing. It feels so good to be able to say that…

Night, chickies!

First of all, thanks to all you chickies for the input! I appreciate all of you!

Secondly, no run this morning because I slept late… there was a BEEP all night, outside of our window. The hubby and I are both exhausted. RAWR. I did do a wii fit body test and then some aerobics on there (kicking the crap out of the old Super Hula record… muahahahaha) just to rev things up. I WILL get in a run today… at some point.

Third, tonight is Fright Night at the boys school, and that sounds like T-R-O-U-B-L-E! I WILL write down EVERY thing I eat today.

Okay, I am late. Talk to you later, chickies!!!
