1st Quarter - Week 9 - Day 3 August 20, 2008
Today has really been the first good day I have had in a long time. I ate completely as I should today AND I exercised! It was a little difficult. I really wanted a Dr. Pepper. I really wanted to go out to eat, but I wouldn’t let myself. My calories were dead on today! I did day 2 of week 3 of the Couch to 5K. I felt soooo STRONG AND POWERFUL! I took my MP3 player, and it made the jogging so much easier. I just jogged to the beat of the music and focused on my breathing. It was really much easier than yesterday. AND I ended up doing 1.84 miles in 30 minutes. That is only .16 miles away from doing 2 miles in 30 minutes. How awesome would that be! That is 4 miles in one hour! It won’t be long and I will be there. I bet week 4 is gonna kick my butt though. Well….I’m gonna try not to weigh tomorrow, but I can’t make any promises.
Today’s exercise:
1.89 miles (I know it isn’t much but after I do this jog I’m pooped and can’t keep going…LOL! I’m gonna start trying to put some stuff at the beginning of the day. But this was almost 300 calories burned).
Today’s food:
Breakfast- Bacon sandwich and blueberry yogurt - 280 calories
Lunch - 2 hotdogs with chips - 375 calories
Snack - Rice crispey square with 1 cup of milk - 190 calories
Supper - Grilled chicken, white beans, corn, 100 calorie pack of cookies, 1 cup of milk - 470 calories
Total calories - 1315 calories of 1500 calories (wow that is pretty good to go along with my almost 300 calories burnt in exercise!)
Yay! Your gettin back on track. Im proud of you , your gonna be a skinny miny before you know it.
Ha ha ha!!! Thanks but the skinny miny part is gonna be a while from now!!! But I will get there eventually!
yay congrats on the exercise and eating choices! excellent job! see how great it feels, and to think its just a number (referring to the calories).
