Week 8 already gone? Now on week 9?!

Well week 8 came and went in just a blink of an eye! And let me tell you it SUCKED!! I've been so busy lately and will continue to be, (read on my other blog why) and I just can't seem to get my butt in gear. I've miss running though. The more I do it the more I miss it when I don't do it! Anyways last week was nasty with eating AND exercising so I'm hoping to do better. Our weather has FINALLY started to get better, knock on wood, and I hope it continues to stay that way, again knock on wood! I'm ready to be outside and do things. Anyways here's to a better week. I'm hoping for weight loss. The group of girls I chat with have changed the check in/weigh in day from monday to sat, I'm not sure I like sat so I might still be checking in here....we'll see. Anyways here's to better week all the way around!

much love!

Week 7...not such a good start.

Well I haven't been feeling well for a little while....a few days so I haven't gotten any exercise in well GOOD exercise. But I'm happy to report I haven't gained any but then again I haven't lost any either. Poo. anyways I'm hoping to start to feel better so I can get back to jogging. I just can't do it while I'm sick. Anyways just a little update...more later....

much love!

Week 6....I'm so happy!

GROWL! I just had it all typed up and tried to post this and it deleted it....oh well I'll just retype it again...it's gotta burn some calories right? lol

well this is week 6 since I started training for the 5k and week 2 since starting my iFit cds. I have to say that I LOVE those!! They are so awesome!! Just love the way they work and everything. It's like having a personal trainer at home.....Anyways I've been doing good with those. I did it today and I'm just so happy to get it done. I feel so good and good about ME after I'm done! I've been doing other things too. I've been taking a few classes at the local gym, the Apple. I want to try everything they have to offer. I've been feeling so great lately. I took Jordan and Tara to monster trucks on sat and ended up going up and down 70 stairs about 7 times, 2 of those with Tara asleep...that's an additional 37 lbs! I was so suprised and excited to realize I wasn't that winded. I mean I was but I recovered with in 30 secs! I was so proud of myself. Two months ago I would have been SO tired! I'm also so proud of me today. I ran at 5 mph for a min! that's HUGE for me! I've only been runing like 4 mph and today I did 5 and even more I did most of the workout at 4.7 mph!! I'm STOKED about that! It was awesome. I'd run about 3 mins and take a 30-60 sec break and go back...it was awesome. I'm expecting some great numbers this week. I'm going to run that 5k if it's the last thing I do!!!

I'm starting on my metformin this week. I've been having some problems with my blood sugars being out of control. It's so strange. I can eat crappy and not exercise and my bs are ok and good, I start to lose weight, exercise daily, and watch what I eat and they go sky high! So wierd to me! But I'm hoping with added met that I'll just lose more and more weight. I'm not looking forward to adjusting to it, I always end up with a headache for WEEKS....but looking forward to getting ME healthly! Anyways I need to go do house work.....stay tuned...tonight is weigh in and messuerments! I'm expecting some good numbers!!! Till then...

Much love!
