Sporadic

I am averaging about 1 run a week. Sad I know. I really need to step it up a notch. It seems like I'm just letting everything else take precedence over going for a run. I need to redefine my schedule and simply make it a non negotiable priority. That's what I did last time I was running and it worked out fabulously.

I also really need to hit the weights. I am very disappointed in my body image. My clothes don't fit right I just feel uncomfortable, overweight, and crabby. Yet I don't want to buy new clothes to perpetuate the issue I want the tight clothes to be a daily reminder of the pounds and inches I need to shed. I once heard the best way to keep from gaining weight is just never buy a bigger size.

I think I need to change my eating too. This is an area I just do not want to give in, I love to eat and I want to eat whatever I want when I want. I exercise to be able to eat what I want! I'm afraid it is gonna take more than exercise to return to the shape I want to be in, sigh.

So here is the plan for the week. Run tonight, Thursday and either Saturday or Sunday depending on Jake's schedule. Weights on Wednesday and Friday and Either Saturday or Sunday depending on how the running works out. As far as food I'm going to to keep a food diary, eat healthy breakfast, and cut back on the snacks. I'm hopping the food diary will help me be more aware of what I am eating when to control my mindless snacking.

So Inconsitent

Well I haven't been very consistent at all. Yet amazingly I have made tremendous progress, go figure. I'm embarrassed to say I've only run about 4 times in the last month. I've done weight training even less then that. Yet I went on a run last night and ran the full 2.5 miles straight. I was absolutely amazed. I must say running begets more exercises. I got home eager to do my weight training. I was so energized I wasn't ready for bed till nearly midnight. I'm looking forward to running again tomorrow is the plan I think I might try for the full 3 miles. I just need to be more consistent in this and all other areas of my life. I'm really feeling overweight and flabby I want to take off some pounds and inches.
