I have been eating like crap! I was determined to make better diet choices but the holiday season has gotten the best of me. I am still staying in my calorie range, but good foods are being pushed aside in order for me to eat sugary treats. I am not proud of this, I am being honest. I am trying to just lay it out there. I have to admit that due to shopping, sick kids, and other commitments I have not been putting myself first in the exercise arena like I said I would do. I am 0/2. I am getting bored of my tredmill, and would like to run outside, but I don't want my neighbors to see me (and look and point!) as I awkwardly jog on by. I have gone at night from time to time, but that is hard with dinner with the family and kids homework...and psychopaths lurking! So I have all these mental roadblocks and then other things come along and the jog gets pushed aside. It is Wednesday and I last exercised on Friday. I need to get it together. I will never reach my weight loss goals at this rate. I WILL jog today however. I have my 2nd 5K on Saturday. On a positive note, when I do jog on the tredmill, I feel stronger, and I have more endurance! It is a really cool feeling! I am coming along...even with my personal self induced set backs. I am sparking, tracking, blogging, and I WILL get this figured out.
