It's that time again...
I expected this if I said I wasn't a little bummed I'd be lying but every time I run a half I always retain a bit of weight I've come to accept it, like no, but I'll deal. I swear you run 13.1 miles for 3+ hours in 75 degree heat you think the fat would just melt off right....why do I keep doing it I'll never know cause I'll tell you the truth running kinda sucks but I just can't quit it.
It's ok cause I got a plan. Now that the half is over (and there isn't another until Oct.) it's time to move on to other things. Just look
I am working on a plan of action. I want to get back to my Aqua and Body Pump classes (as long as I do light weights for a while longer I think the doc will be ok with it but when do I ever listen)I also want to do more lifting in general. But honestly I'm a little nervous. I have a hard time lifting on my own . I LOVE it, but I feel more comfortable with someone telling me what to do. (God do I miss my trainer Soben, but my pocketbook just doesn't have the wiggle room to make it happen right now). So I am researching, studying, pinteresting <--- new word? and making lists
(I love lists, I am a total list maker). I will make this happen!
So if any of you have any advice or tips please send them my way.
I need that scale to move the hell down. I think I'll also start posting my weekly goals here or on instagram (I really haven't figured it all out yet) I like the idea of weekly better than monthly, I always start out strong but then towards the end lose steam. And since we are talking goals I didn't do great but I wasn't horrible on my April goals I only missed a total of 4 days of not drinking warm lemon water and 3 of not hitting my fitbit goal. But I didn't lose 5 pounds and one week I got zero miles in for running. I did great all my fruits and veggies in (that one was pretty easy I love em')
So even though this week is half over I'm NOT going to do the wait till Monday thing Let's get this shit started NOW!!!
Weekly goals May 5-11
1. At least 2 Body Pump Classes
2. One lifting session on my own (gotta break out of my comfort zone some how)
3. Walk/Run at least 3 miles for the week
(I know this seems low, but I did just do 13.1 my legs need a little rest right...)
Oh and one more thing I started a Facebook page I would love for you to go and check it out Here.
Thanks so much you are awesome!

Shanna from because Shanna said so... I love her outfits they are adorns, and Amber from Fit Foodie Runs.
I just started lifting this week because I finally had a friend to go with me, so I totally understand hating to lift on your own. I also gained some weight after my half marathon...not clue why though!
ReplyDeleteSorry about the gain, but I bet you're right, it's just from the half. Good job btw!
