I was extremely busy today. I went shopping, made dinner, put up groceries, went to the gym, walked the dog. I did 30 minutes of elliptical and ran 4 miles plus abs today at the gym. Come January 1st, I have to run 4.25 miles when I run. I think if I run 3 times a week that is pretty good. I will take a FIERCE cardio/strength class tomorrow, and I will have exercised 6 days this week. Really, if you count 30 minutes of dog walking a day, I will have exercised 7 days. That feels really good. I used to NEVER exercise. I wouldn't even walk for 30 minutes - hell, I wouldn't even walk 15 minutes! Now I run 4 miles. It takes me 58 minutes. Every time I get on that treadmill, I tell myself it's okay if I give up early. But I always manage to push myself to 2.0 miles, which is the halfway point, and once I get past that, the rest is fairly easy. I made some sugar free brownies last night - and no, I did not eat the whole pan in my sleep. I ate a couple, then I put the rest in plastic bags for single servings and I froze them. I know if I really wanted to chow out, I would just eat them. Even when they are frozen, brownies are so oily that you can eat them. The whole point of this exercise is that it makes it more work for me to eat a brownie. If I just left the pan out on the top of the stove, I would be picking at it all day. I would take a little here and a little there, and eventually I would have ate the equivalent of a whole other brownie with just my picking at it, a brownine that I wouldn't feel compelled to log. So I can't have a pan of sugar free brownies staring me in the face. I feel like if I bag them up, and keep them in the freezer, that I'll be better able to manage eating them healthfully.
