Well my last update was Friday and it’s Monday morning now. Friday night I never did manage to go running… I have a friend who was recently diagnosed with cancer so I called her and asked if she wanted to meet up and walk around the lake and she said yes. In the time it took her to get down there while I waited at the coffee shop, I could have run around the lake twice, but so it goes when you have an Italian friend who is chronically late! We had a nice walk even if we got a little frozen and I reached my goal of at least a half hour of exercise every day. Saturday morning I dragged my butt out of bed and went up to my trainer’s group ab class. All I had was coffee beforehand so I was pretty wiped by the end of a full hour of abs exercises, but I got through it. No run that day. Sunday I made up for Friday and Saturday by taking a longer run, 5 miles, my longest run this year so far. My average mile keeps getting shorter which I’m pretty happy about even if it’s just by increments of a few seconds a day. It definitely pushes me to push myself so I can keep beating my time. My fastest mile today was 8’38’’.
Foodwise, I had sort of a cheat day Sunday… well it started Saturday night with some blue corn chips and homemade guacamole at a party, and a small mixed alcoholic beverage. Sunday I shared a big brunch with some friends which included part of a warm scone (usually I avoid the wheat and grains in general) and Sunday evening someone brought over cookies and I ate three or four. Today am back on track – started off the day with Shakeology (chocolate!) and plan to roast some veggies for dinner. Lunch is a grass fed hamburger patty and some of my favorite salad. I am seeing changes in my body and feeling very optimistic!
