Day 56 (and 57) Its A Beautiful Day

Saturday: Youngest and I did our C25K run/walk today, covering 2.0 miles in 29 minutes and 6 extra minutes of brisk walk at the end. This one seemed to hit me pretty hard...but I kept it going. Just seemed like more of a struggle. But now that I'm done, I feel so much better. I have to keep remembering this part of working out, the after-glow.

Haven't been on the scale this week. I'm afraid to. Last time I got on, I was pretty much stuck, and I don't want to be disappointed again, cuz I know I am doing the right things.

Patrick mentioned that maybe getting on the scale less frequently might be a good idea. That way I give my body more time to react to the changes in my choices and start reflecting those changes in my weight. Hmm....have to think about that.

Sunday: well, had too many things going on today to run. I'll be back out there tomorrow. Salad for lunch, coffee in the morning, water and lemonade to drink. And my dinner: a biscuit and a sausage patty (ugh!). Worst of all, it didn't even taste very good. It was just filler....and bad filler at that. Tomorrow is another day.

  1. hang in there..it could have been a lot worse than a patty. I was wondering, what day are you on of the C25K? I had a really tough day last week too, I was wondering if there was a connection there.
    Have a great day! :)

  3. Scale, oh the scale. Whether you get on oftem or not, it shouldn't wear on you mentally. I've seen some go to great lengths to argue what the frequency should be. Thus I believe it really is a personal choice, like whether you prefer your coffee black, sugar, cream, both or hate coffee. Have it the way you like so long as it helps you in your mission and does not cause you any grief.
