Insane

We did the Insanity workout for three days and on Friday, I had such muscle pain that I just couldn't do it.  So, we took a break.  Unfortunately, that break lasted through Sunday.  My weigh in wasn't good, 211.4 pounds.  We started Insanity backup this morning.  I have the 5K in less than 4 weeks but it is really hard to run after completing that workout.  I'm not sure how to get that done.  I tried today and couldn't run really at all.  I just walked at a an incline for a while.  Maybe I'll have better success on the days Insanity doesn't focus on the legs.

MIA

Sorry I was MIA.  I had a cold, then food poisoning, and I"m just getting over the cold now.  Sunday I weighed in at 211.8 pounds.  Still 3.2 pounds above where I should be.  This morning I started the Insanity workout program with my husband.  We get up before 5am to do it, so he can be done by then and get to work on time.  I really, really want to stick with this.  I still need to do my running, so hopefully I can make all of this work.  My plan is to run after the Insanity workout.  If that doesn't work, I'll need to find other times to run.  I promised a friend we'd run the 5K on March 24th in less than 40 minutes!  I still haven't run a full mile on the Couch to 5K program.  I'll be starting that up again tomorrow and hope to pick up on week 5 workout 1.

Weigh ins

Yesterday I was 212.2 pounds and this morning, for the official weigh in, I am 211.4 pounds.  So, I still need to lose 3 pounds this week to get back on track.  And, I'm still sick.  Awesome.

Sorry

Sorry, I didn't post yesterday.  I am really feeling sick as a dog.  At my weigh in yesterday morning I was 213.2 pounds and this morning I was 212.8 pounds.  Yesterday I had a large latte, a bagel with peanut butter, pistachios, greek yogurt, OJ, taco salad with tortilla chips, and a little bit of ice cream.

I probably won't post much over the weekend besides my weigh ins.  I'm going to focus on resting to kick this cold or flu or whatever it is.  I didn't run this morning but I am hoping I feel well enough tomorrow to do it. 

I highly doubt I'll make my weigh in on Sunday so I'll be posting my food consumption next week and I promise to be more diligent about it then.

No way

I feel like crap.  Really sore throat, cough, runny nose, and sneezing like crazy.  I went to Book Babies at the library this morning and as I walked up to the desk, they put up the sign that they were out of tickets.  Awesome.  At the doctor's office this afternoon, I found out, while in the exam room waiting for the doctor, that the insurance company has no record of me.  Our new policy was supposed to be in effect 2 weeks ago.  Awesome.  I ate poorly today.  Awesome.  Luckily, my time with the little one was WONDERFUL and I got my run in this morning.  It was really difficult, but I'm proud.  It seems to be that way each time.  Workout 2 week 5 complete.

PS I'm not posting my food today, see "I ate poorly today" above.

Weigh In Day 4

213.8 pounds.  Again.  That sucks.  I knew I ate too much spaghetti last night.  At least I'm up early and ready to run.

Food - Day 3

I had part of my son's waffle (everyday it seems).  Then for my breakfast, I had a bagel thin (less calories than a real bagel) with natural peanut butter that seems to taste so much better than regular peanut butter.  I then had pistachios for my morning snack, leftover chinese food for lunch, and greek yogurt for my afternoon snack.  I had milk with leftover spaghetti for dinner and I ate too much of it.  Then I had tea and some chocolate after dinner.  I had orange juice throughout the morning and evening.  It seems to make my throat feel better.  Unfortunately, I'm severely missing fruits and vegetables from today's diet.
