I'm Back Too!

So I'll recap last week's progress! So I made my goal and ran 5 days straight last week! I've been running almost 3 miles except for the last day since my knees started hurting. =( I guess I put too much into it too soon but still feeling good. We're adding P90X in this week too so hopefully I'm on my way to being toned! I honestly don't have a "weight-loss" goal since I'm happy with my current weight, but just need to tone. What will probably happen is I'll gain weight with gaining muscle. That's always a struggle mentally but that's okay. I should get past it by seeing the physical changes in the mirror! =) We also watched Food, Inc. this weekend and that gave us another push towards eating healthy. Knowing where our food comes from, how a lot of what we eat is genetically altered and processed does something to you mentally! It was extremely informative and although it might cost us a little more in the pockets, we went shopping yesterday morning and most of what we bought was organic and healthy. I wish all you girls luck on meeting your goals! We can do it ladies- we want to be going on "girls trips" and sharing life stories for a LONG time right?!

  1. That is my problem too - when I see weight gain I feel bad and want to eat bad! I know it may just be water weight (or muscles, like you said) but its still discouraging. However, I'm going to move forward. I've been fat all these years, seeing one more pound isn't going to kill me...as long as they go away within a few days! LOL!
