    * Running (as weather permits)

    * counting calories

#BL11 Calorie burn

Before the show stared I decided I would work out during the shows breaks. A reminder 2 those that don’t remember I have a 4 year old son so some of those breaks where spent with him.

Tonights magic number is 118, that is how many calories I burned. I plan to do better & better every week.

So next time a show you love comes on exercise during breaks.

Falling off the Wagon : (

Its realy hard looking back knowing all the things I did wrong. I worked so hard last year to lose weight. So now I ask my self why did I blow it.

I started going down hill in October at a football party. My best friend made yummy cupcakes , even though I KNEW I didn’t need 1 I not only had one but I had two. I could kick myself in the butt.

So right now I sit here regretting what I did, And also knowing what I have to do .

From this moment on I will eat right & work my butt off.

Last Weeks Run

Just realized I didn’t Blog last week. Well Here goes. I ran on both Tue. & Thurs.

 Tuesdays Run -  I used my couch to 5K program so i knew right off the time would not be good. I am still a newbie runner, but time is still important to me. I ran 2.02 miles in 32mins.

Thursdays Run - I went running with my Bff Liz, We ran 3 miles. Boy I thought she was going to kill me. She told me the reason my time is off is because I have gotta learn how to BREATH. I was so upset with myself, I told her i should know how to do that. She said I am just gonna have to work at it and push myself. So you taught me a few techniques I am going to be working on.

The Pain … Ugh

OK so last night I put on my workout clothing and lacing up my shoes to go for a run, I stand up and pain just shoots up in to my left Calf Muscle. So I then walk around in my bedroom for a little while hoping it will go away. Well guess what, it didn’t.

So I take something for it in the hopes i am able to maybe do something else, like maybe walk. Needless to say I was unable to workout last night.

I woke up this morning at 5:45 and I could hardly walk to the next room. So I am sure you know i didn’t go for a run this morning. The pain has died down a lot since then. I am going to go walk tonight before church and then do a Dvd when i get home.

Calorie shifting

 After watching Jay on Sundays #H4H2 video i decided i wanted to look up some info on Calorie shifting. I also looked up others, Low Carb, Atkins, hmm, those are the same just now noticing lol..

 I noticed Jay was on Yahoo Messanger and mentioned to him that I was looking in to the Calorie shifting diet. After telling him that I count calories he said that I should really look into that diet that it has worked for him.

 The idea behind calorie shifting is to not take in the same amount of calories everyday. That way your body is not stuck on one calorie amount. For example yesterday i consumed 1421 calories, today I am only going to consume 1200 then tomorrow 1600 then 1400 then 2000 calories. That way my body dose not get accustom to one calorie intake each day.

 I have read a lot on this and it sounds like a good plan. I have also chatted with a few other people as well. Keep you fingers crossed and I will let you know how it goes.

Thinking about Weight Watchers

 OK, so after talking to a few different people i really do think i would like to join Weight Watchers. A friend of mine,Bridgette, said that she would love to join with me.

So I can not use the old trick ” I don’t wanna be in the room with a lot of people i don’t know ” Trick.

I must admit i am scared of weighing in front of all the people. My biggest fear is that everyone in the meeting will be near there goal weight and my fat butt will be there 30 lbs away from mine. Ugh the stress. I need to just quit crying and do it.
