Odds and Ends

I ran/walked today. Mostly I ran, but I took some short walking breaks in between. I ran a 5k in 36:15, which isn’t too shabby. I am adjusting my 5k goal to include that I want to run it in 36 minutes with absolutely no walking whatsoever. In my defense (aka excuse making time) most of this run was uphill, SERIOUSLY! Ugh. It was like a never ending steady slope. But I did it. And before I did it, I did the Shred (Day 4).

Also, we went to a high school graduation party for my coworker, Tanya’s stepson, Kyle. I think I did okay there. Here’s what I ate:

·         A small piece of grilled chicken (I don’t think it was marinated in anything but I’m not sure)

·         Spring mix greens with carrots, broccoli, tomato, and white onions topped with a few tablespoons of Kraft Lite Balsamic Vinaigrette

·         Some (like 10) cubes of smoked gouda

·         A glass of white wine

·         A small piece of yellow sheet cake with very little icing (I hate buttercream icing)

I think that’s it. I never felt stuffed or even full actually, so I must have been doing okay. And to be honest, I’m kind of hungry now (at 10:48 pm).

Tomorrow is going to be super busy but I’m hoping I can find the time to workout. I obviously have to get the Shred in no matter what else happens, even if I’m doing it at 11:40 pm. It’s gotta get done. That was my first major goal.

Besides that,  Bubs has a birthday party to go to at 10 am and we still need to get the boy a birthday present, so I have to get to ToysRUS super early. After that, she will definitely need a nap, and then we are going to my dad’s house for dinner as we have family friends in town from Illinois. I think I will definitely have a chance to get it in after she wakes up from nap time. I’ll probably do the Shred during her nap and then when she wakes up we’ll go for a power walk for about 3-4 miles. Should be fun.

Weigh Day Tomorrow! Here’s hoping I lost at least 1lb. eeek!
