This is a little late, but big news! I finished my first 5k on July 15th. It was pretty, but I ran almost the entire thing (stopping once for water and another time to catch my breath for 10 steps). I finished in just over 37 minutes. Not great, but I finished! I think I actually did better this time then when I ran a 4 mile race when I was 125lbs. Training outside and on the course made a huge difference.
Anyway, I have been doing pretty well with the fruits and veggies goal too. We have been eating a lot of fresh fruit and more veggies. Once we get in the house (hopefully in 20 days) then we will turn the big diet change on. Essentially we are starting fresh. New house, new goals, new everything. It just seems like the perfect chance to get back on track.
The 28lb thing...I am not sure that is going to happen as it stands I have lost 22lbs so far, but just not sure about another 30 basically. We shall see.
The house. The house. I am beyond excited about our new home! It is almost done and it is beautiful. I know being in this house will help us to get healthy and just make life better. Being in a 550 sq ft apartment with a 2 year old for 15 months has been a struggle...we get bored or stir crazy we go out then we eat out. It has created a major issue for us. Dennis and I are firm believers in organic if possible, but it just has not been possible. A lot of people may say I am making excuses, but I truly have no room to store anything...even food. Going to the grocery store everyday is not feasible with a 2 year old and a 30 minute commute (minimum). The point is-I CANNOT WAIT TO CLOSE ON OUR HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!
