Getting back to it

Week 2 of following the running schedule.

38 min total with 5 min warm-up, 2 min run/2 min walk, followed by 4 min cool down.

Felt good most of the run but towards the very end felt a little sick to my stomach.

The most encouraging thing was I got the scale this morning for the first time in a week and was down by 2.5 pounds!  Yeah!  And that was after having choc cake and ice cream twice over the weekend.  The first time was worth it - at a dinner party and so yummy. The 2nd time wasn't worth the calories - at a scout function with store bought cake that wasn't that good.  That will teach me to be more careful what I choose to cheat with.

I did 2 segments of the BL DVD - one cardio and lower body workout.  And then my friend Desiree came over to try it out and we did another cardio segment.  They may be only 10 minute segments but they are killer.

It always feels good to get "out" running on the treadmill.  I did 2 min run/2 min walk with a total of 34 minutes. I felt so good I did 5 min straight at the end and then a cool down.

The eating this week has been okay - a little cheat last night with a chocolate dipped cone at Arctic Circle. At least I didn't get a shake.

I decided to just do the DVD this week and follow it religiously.

So Monday was 2 10 minute cardio segments -they are hard and I really sweat doing them.  It shows how out of shape I am.

Today was 2 weights segments - upper and lower body.  They are easier than the cardio but still a good workout.  Even though its only about 20 minutes total I still feel sore.

Did 2 segments from the BL DVD - 1 10 minute cardio workout with weights and then 1 segment of core/ab workout.  It was okay.

Yesterday was terrible - no exercise and no self control.  So I gotta get back on the wagon and that's always hard.
