The First Day

Uncategorized

FacebookTweetPin
30 Apr

I’ve decided that today is the first day of my healthy weight loss journey. I have learned a  lot over the last few months about my body, cravings, Intuitive Eating and more. Now I am going to put it all in action. I think I have been way too easy on myself and don’t make a big enough effort to stay on track. I really have to suck it up and just stop eating unnecessary foods. Crap Free Week(s) starts today and will continue until I feel like I have a hold on eating random extras!

I took a pic of myself in one of my suits for a before pic. In 51 days I will post an after. Let’s see what I can do by then. I don’t expect to be at my goal weight – 147 – by then, but I will be about 7 less than I am today (WI tomorrow).

W/O: I did not feel like running after eating a ton of junk last night, but this was my last chance run before the half this weekend. 5 miles and then 30 Day Shred Level 1. Meghann mentioned that this is a good thing to do if you’re trying to tone up for an event – hello, wedding. – so, I think I’ll aim to do this 5 days a week until the wedding.

Breakfast:oat bran, naner, almond milk, cinnamon, PB, dollop of cottage cheese with pineapple and strawberries.dscn8267

And I finally got my Road ID! I thought about it after Caitlin posted about it a while back, but it kinda slipped my mind. Last week I remembered and decided to order one right then. I hope it never comes in handy, but I’m glad I have it!dscn8255
