I can't believe I've lost 5 pounds! I haven't been losing in a VERY long time. Last time I tried eating about 1500 calories a day I didn't lose any. I've actually been exercising less because of a strained hip muscle, which I am worried about tearing or hurting worse because I am a light runner. I made myself go to the gym tonight, in the dark and cold, and when I got there I weighed myself, and was very pleasantly surprised with the 5 pound loss. Then I did 30 minutes of elliptical to warm up, and then I started running. I didn't start to do "bad", the first mile was easy, the second mile was okay, and I kept thinking "maybe I should stop early" but still kept going. Right around 2.5 miles my hip started tweaking. Not pain, but tightness and pressure. I decided right then to stop at 3 miles - about 45 minutes of running for me. I'm glad I did - 3 miles is a decent workout, my hip didn't get injured worse, and I left the gym 5 pounds lighter! Great day!
