I realize it's been a couple of weeks since my last post. Not that I have been so busy that I haven't posted, but just haven't taken the time to do it. I have still been doing Weight Watchers, and feel like I am doing pretty good. It has helped me to see the difference in my choices now. Friday treats at work used to be, grab a candy of some sort and then head back to work. I have realized in the past couple of months that I don't go to the table that has the candy unless it has baked lays potato chips; I just hit the fruit table and head back to my desk. I just don't want to afford the points that the calories would cost me. I still struggle on the weekends a bit, but I am trying to make better decisions with the food I choose. My wife might not think I am making any changes, but I am and I feel like I am doing so.
I know that I have said this before, but I am starting a walk/run program. I know I know, I started this a time before, and then P90X, and whatever else is out there, but then I find a way to not stick with it. I am the king of quitting what I start. If anyone out there needs to know how to not stick with something, or want to know how to start something and then not stick with it, I'm your guy! I can give you advice all day long about it. But in all seriousness, I did start it again this week. I made it through week 1. I found the program off www.RunnersWorld.com, I love that site. Though I am not an avid runner YET! I want to be and this program, which is an eight week program will help me train my body to run 30 minutes straight. I was supposed to run Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, but I got in Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. I think that is ok. I am going to move onto week 2. Saturday was a bit rough. I ran outside for the first time in a while. We are staying with my in-laws and they live in a rather hilly area. At one point I had to run down a steep hill, NOT a good idea. By late evening my ankle and hips hurt so bad, I thought that I had seriously fractured my ankle. Needless to say, today it was doing better, and I think by my run tomorrow, it will be doing a lot better. I think I should probably run outside more, but maybe when I have lost a bit more weight. Well I am off. I hope to post on the days that I run so I will hopefully be reporting back by tomorrow.
