There are good things on the horizon. I can feel it.
I want to keep working hard to reach my goals, and I want to inspire others to do what I am doing. To change their lives.
Weekly Goal Recap:
- Run the Pittsburgh Marathon in May 2011.
- Sunday – Ran the Buckeye Classic 10K Trail Run. I guess you could say I got in some early practice for tackling those Pennsylvania hills!!
- Tuesday – High Intensity Interval (a.k.a. HITT), in which I actually sprinted for five minutes straight – my longest sprint to date!
- Thursday – Another great sprint workout on the treadmill mixed with core strengthening.
- Loose the last 50 pounds the healthy way.
- This week, I lost inches in both my chest and my arms.
- I packed my lunch everyday this week not only ensuring that I ate healthy and balanced meals, but I saved some cash too!
- I re-discovered that eating a solid breakfast really helps to improve my energy levels throughout the day.
- My two favorite breakfasts so far:
1) 1 cup shredded wheat (plain)
1 cup skim milk
1 small banana sliced
365 calories – 15 grams protein
2) ½ cup natural plain oatmeal made with water
1 small banana sliced
¼ cup walnuts
436 calories – 11 grams protein
(If you like banana nut bread, I think this tastes just like it!)
- Be at my goal weight of 150 pounds by next summer.
- Today I weighed in at 201 lbs
- Weekly weight loss: -0.5 lbs (Technically I was 201.8 last week and 201.4 this week)
- Total weight loss since November 4, 2010: -5.5 lbs
Nice work this week! Great goals.
Bringing lunch to work is super smart – take that extra money you’re saving put it in a a jar and then got treat yourself to some really cool running gear!
By the way – my two fav. breakfasts too – minus the banana (sadly, I discovered I’m allergic to bananas a few years ago and had to give them up… 🙁 it was a sad day, indeed…. sigh.
congrats. Keep it up.
Thanks to you both! I appreciate your support!!! 😉
