(Very Late) Weekly Review

Don't Panic!! I'm okay! Really. I'm fine.

My weeks have been filled with too much lately that I hardly get a chance to check out everyone's blogs, let alone write a post for mine!

Too much work make Lizzy angry. I'm going on to a 10 day stretch with 2 doubles thrown in there for good measure. >:(

Plus! I am moving at the end of the month- that should make things even more timely! haha

Onto the review...

I have a confession. I have been eating out too much lately. Just too much. Not entirely terrible for me restaurants or food, just too much. I must stop.

Last Week's Goals
------------------------
1) A loss- done! I lost 1.4 lbs last weigh in. Yeah! I hope to keep it  up.

2) Yoga 3-4x  - nope. I did yoga once this week. But, it was Jillian's Yoga Meltdown. I made it through Level 1 but my shoulders were sore the next day.

3) Run outside- I didn't run outside, but I did run on the treadmill, which was a NSV this week!

Non-Scale Victory of the Week
--------------------------------------
I decided to do 5K on the treadmill no matter what. I said to myself- it is okay if you have to walk a bit or take a break, just don't stop. I wanted to see what my time would be so that I can improve on it and maybe run a race in the future.

I ran most of it and ended up walking for 0.3 miles. I went slower so that I could finish the whole thing without getting too tired- I finished with a time of around 40 minutes. Not great, but now I know.

I was happy to just run. I kept thinking while I ran- "you could never have done this a year ago." It felt great to think about how much stronger I am. I can really feel it in my body. My legs are much more sturdy. My calves have definition. I can feel my waist just being smaller.

This Week's Goals
----------------------
1) A Loss
2) Get 64oz of water for at least 5/7 days
3) Something active outside- because it is beautiful!

Hope everyone's week is off to a great start!

  1. How amazing that you were able to run a 5K on your treadmill! This inspires me to try and see if I can do that, too. I'm still only able to run for 5 minutes at a time, so probably will walk most of a 5K at this point.

    Great job!

  4. Sorry to be dumb, but just how far is a 5K run?

    5K is 3.1 miles, I guess 5k just sounds better!
