Weigh In and Day 2!

First off, thanks for all of the comments on yesterdays post! You all had a lot of great things to say. The verdict for myself is definitely have snacks for a backup, but listen to when and what my body wants! Also, Morgan pointed out that I should be careful with the Clif bars, and she is totally right. I started eating a whole one and then went down to half, but I think that will be my AM snack for my long runs on Sundays and maybe half a bar before my evening workouts if I am ravenous! I am so excited to see NEW followers!! HI EVERYONE!! WELCOME!!

So, I weighed at my gym today and I am now at

127!!!

I lost .4 lbs and couldn't be happier! Especially because I had 32 oz. of Gelato(Italian Ice Cream) and that's A LOT! I didn't do fabulous on eating, but I think I did okay! Next week, I am hoping to see 125.something :) I am sure I can do it! Just got to stick to eating right and cutting back on the Gelato!!

Today is Day 2 of half marathon training and I feel GREAT!!! It is also Day 2 of the "30 Day Shred"!! That's right! I am going to do it for 30 days and actually stick to it!! I will be taking some before pictures hopefully tonight! It's going to be a tough 30 days, but the more I push, the better my body will be! I do need strength training pretty badly! My body fat is 26.2% and it was at 22% just a couple of weeks ago. The scale might be wrong, but I doubt it!

Hi there,
Saw your comments to Monica about the 30 DS...I've just started it too (I'm on day 5, I think, I'd better keep track of that!).

We can do it!

Impressive! What half marathon training program are you using? I'm going with Hal Higdon's novice one... so far it seems pretty reasonable. We'll see when I get to some of the higher mileages. :D

what i wouldn't give to be doing the shred right now, I take back everything bad I have ever said about Jillian :-)

Great job on the loss! You are doing such a good job and your enthusiasm is so contagious!

Katie said...

Thanks! :] You're great!

Congrats on the loss! A little gelato here and there won't kill you. I'm sure you will do wonderful this upcoming week!

The 30 day shred is quite the killer, but TOTALLY worth it. I did it this past summer & although Jillian and I shared a few nasty words throughout- I loved her in the end :]

Hi - This is my first visit to your blog - it's great, and you're doing fantastic. Good luck with training for the Half - I walked a half in 2008 and it was great. A very long walk though! The run will be quite a lot shorter. I suspect the training will help whittle you down to your size 6s nicely.
