Weigh In Wednesday!

Down .2 lbs! It's not a lot, but I was really expecting a gain this week, so I'll take it!

Goals for the Week:

-Drink my water everyday!

-Get in my healthy oils

-Work out 4 days

-Finish week one of C25K

I wanted to get up this morning and work on run two of C25K, but I didn't sleep well last night and really wasn't feelin' it this morning. I think I'll try to do it later tonight or tomorrow morning instead. We'll see. :-)

First Steps

I actually did it. I started Couch to 5k this morning! It doesn't sound like much, but I haven't worked out in such a long time. It felt good just to get out there, but it also reminded me how much I need to be working out. I struggled with the running, but I tried not to get down about it, since I haven't worked out in a long time. I am supposed to take tomorrow off, so I think I am going to do this workout video. I love it! I used to do it quite a bit, but now I'm ready to start again.



You guys should check it out. I am definitely sweating a little bit toward the end, which makes me feel like it is definitely giving me a decent workout, but I never feel like I am dying. Haha..

Guilt and Groceries

I would like to blame my out of control snacking on my TOM this week, and I really hope that's the reason. :( This blog is making me feel more accountable, but it hasn't necessarily stopped me. The good thing is that, even if I am giving in to temptation and cravings, I now to it in a much more controlled way. Pre-WW Sarah would have wanted ice cream and sat down with the entire carton. Now, I went to the freezer with a spoon and just grabbed a big bite. Pretty impressive, so long as I don't do that twenty times in a row. Does the walk from my chair to the fridge count as exercise? Haha.

I'm really happy, though. I went grocery shopping this morning and grabbed some stuff so that I can make some yummy meals. This will be my first week going back to my normal job and not having class. That means, I WILL START COOKING MEALS. I've got to take advantage of this month without school. So far, I have three meals planned for this week. I will make baked mostacioli, chicken caesar wraps, and strawberry stuffed French toast. I am most excited for the French toast; it sounds so delicious. I will try to post recipes and pics when I make these meals. :-)

Hopefully having my meals planned out will help me stay OP this coming week. I'm psyched to get the chance to cook again.

I'm going to my parents' for dinner tonight, so hopefully I can make some good choices. Brats for dinner, yum!

...nervous about WI this week with it being my TOM, but I am going to try to get up early and start Couch to 5k tomorrow!
