5K Training: Day 52

Jillian Michaels 30DS, Day 10

OH SHIT. Last day of Level 1. I'm a little, and by a little I mean A WHOLE LOT, concerned, about moving to Level 2. I've heard people say its a huge leap in challenge level. Merrrrr.

On other depressing news, I'm still not losing weight like I was before, although now I'm stuck at 206.6 instead of 207.4--better? UGH.

5K Training: Day 51

25 minutes on the treadmill at 4.5 mph ~ 1.87 miles

I'm impressed with this run since I was out last night until 12:30am and consumed 1 tequila shot, 1 margarita, 1 glass of white wine and 1 glad of red wine. I didn't feel too great when I woke up at 7:30, but I drank a glass of water, laid in bed another 1/2 hour, and then went to the gym. Go me.

And I guess I definitely upped my calorie intake yesterday. Haha. Let's see if that moves the scale any!

5K Training: Day 50

Jillian Michaels 30DS, Day 9

I'm seriously starting to get pissed off at the fact that I am still sitting at 207.4 lbs after three weeks of eating within my calorie limit each day, working out six days a week and trying to cut back on salt/dairy/soda/EVERY FOOD IN THE GODDAMN WORLD. I don't know what to do.

I guess I could try eating more calories each day but that just scares me. I thought my mini-goal of under 200 lbs by the end of June was a wimp goal since I only needed to lose 4 lbs in four weeks but FUCK ME ITS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN AT THIS RATE.

UGH. Shark week.

5K Training: Day 49

Seven weeks complete. And even though I'm a little behind schedule, I think I'm doing okay. I feel like I am pushing myself hard, but not too hard, it that makes sense.

Went to the gym and ran for 25 minutes at 4.5mph which was approximately 1.85 miles. Then walked for five minutes to add another 0.27 miles. It started rough because my legs were a little stiff from yesterday's hike, but by the end, it felt normal--tired and out of breath, pushing to make it to 25 minutes. Hah.

Still no movement on the scale (UGHHHHHHH) but I'm blaming this weeks's stagnant number on the fact that it's almost Shark Week and my body is probably bloated. Hopefully. I REALLY JUST WANT TO BE OUT OF THE 200s! (I say that as I'm about to go eat brunch with my girlfriends. Oops.)

Time to shower!

5K Training: Day 48

I know, I know: It's my day of rest, but I went on a hike today! Thank goodness we went early because it was gorgeous--but now it's dark and raining.

~4.5 miles in 1.5 hours. MFP = 900+ calories while DB says 800+. I can't imagine it's really that many but I'll pretend like it is for now! :)

Can't wait to go hiking more!

5K Training: Day 47

Jillian Michaels 30DS, Day 8

Legs were a little sore from yesterday's run when I started doing the workout, but I pushed through. I have a bad feeling that Level 2 is going to KILL me. I also need to figure out what's going on with my diet. I have been barely going over 1200 net calories everyday and I'm still fluctuating between 207 and 205 lbs. It's so frustrating.

But on a good note, I haven't had a "cheat day" (like my Sundays used to be) in a couple weeks. :) NSV?

5K Training: Day 46

Well, after Tuesday's disaster run (and after effects), today went much better. Though, as soon as I walked into the gym, I asked where the restroom was, just in case. Haha. Then I set the treadmill to 4.5 mph (about a 13 minute and 20 second pace) and went.

And went and went and went. 2 MILES BABY. I am so unbelievably impressed with myself right now, even though it took me 27 minutes. (It was slightly demoralizing when I saw a girl WALKING 4.4mph as I was stretching...but screw her!) Now I know it's not going to be easy to do it again (I remember the first time I ran a whole mile...), but now I KNOW I can so that will help push me along. Only one more mile to conquer before I have reached my 5K goal. YAY!
