This will be a quick, short post. I just had a couple of thoughts I wanted to share...
1. I saw 188 on the scale this morning! Yeehaw!! Now to only go DOWN from there, right??
2. I have revamped my Slim Fast tactic. I was trying to eat my 500-calorie meal at lunchtime and finding myself not wanting to stop eating once I started. Last night was grocery night, so I planned out our dinners for the next 5 days and ONLY bought those ingredients. Obviously, I got a few things for breakfasts and lunches for the rest of the family, but nothing that is too enticing for me. After I put everything away last night, I was telling my husband that it is easier for me to not snack when everything in the kitchen is a part of a "meal".
3. Today's interval run was 6 minutes run/1 minute walk and it was awesome! I felt great and even had a little burst of energy at the end to make it to the end of the street for my mapping to be easier. Ha, ha. During my run I decided on my music for the Tomato Fest 5K this Saturday. Since I have a goal of finishing in 27 minutes or less, I have decided to use my Christian Workout music for 25 minutes and then have 2 minutes of silence. This way, I will run comfortably (hopefully fast) during the music (only choosing songs with the BPM's higher than 140), and when the silence starts, I will know I need to just kick it up to the finish line. I have heard from others who are experienced with this route that it is a bit hilly and I really feel like the Firecracker 5K was not, so I'm nervous about that. However, if I improve my time at all, I will be happy. The 27 minute goal is just to get out of paying for the Somerville 5K, right, Ash? ;)
4. I officially have 50 followers now and feel the need for another contest!! It will be next week, so be on the lookout...
(Finally) 5. I am working on my Tomato Fest outfit and I think it's going to be a good one!! Look forward to pictures this weekend.
That is all for today. I did end up buying some more earbuds for the ipod and had a stern talk with the kids about NOT cutting anything other than paper. And only paper that has been preapproved by mom or dad. We'll see if that sticks.
Have a great day!
xoxo
