Weight Loss/Gain: Down another 1.5 lbs!! I am just one pound from losing my first ten pounds. WOW, that went by fast. I was thinking this week about how far away the next ten pounds seems and that maybe I should have a smaller victory to look forward to before that next goal. I haven't been able to remember what my pre-pregnancy weight was but I thought that would be an awesome achievement. Good thing I kept a very detailed pregnancy journal complete with weekly weigh-ins. After my first ten pounds I am going to focus on getting to my pre-preggo weight which will be just six pounds.
Best part of this week: Everything is becoming a little more routine to me. Fitting in workouts and choosing the right foods is becoming second nature and something that seems easier to fit into my busy schedule. I enjoy getting active and it has become a bit of a family affair. I don't have any friends that live close enough to me that I can workout with regularly but my hubby steps in and becomes my workout partner when I really need one to stay motivated.
Worst part of this week: My knees have been killing me from all of the pavement running I have been doing. I do love the training program for the 5K but I need to scale back a bit. I have been doing three nights a week of running on a concrete surface and it is starting to take a toll. I am going to try to switch to a track running surface for one of the days and see if that helps. Also I feel like I need to incorporate a more dynamic workout a couple days a week in order to work some other muscle groups and so that I can keep my body guessing. It is so easy to do the running program because I can put Jackson in the stroller and go anytime during the day or evening. In order to do something different I have to be able to put him somewhere that he won't be in danger of getting kicked in the face by one of my awesome moves.
Thought I would leave you with something funny for this week as I need a little humor boost today...
So True!!
Have a great and productive week!!
