Week 6 Recap

 Pounds Lost This Week: None - I am up 1 lb (15.6 lbs TOTAL lost)

Exercise: I finished week 6 of C25K! On Friday I ran for 22 minutes straight! Only 2 more weeks before I AM able to run a 5K!

I am a little disappointed in myself because I took 3 days off of exercising this past week.

Sunday: Rest Day
Monday: C25K Week 6 Day 1 (18 min run /16 min walk) & Elliptical (40 min)
Tuesday: Walk (25 min) & Run (20 min)
Wednesday: C25K Week 6 Day 2 (20 min run/13 min walk)
Thursday: Rest Day
Friday: C25K Week 6 Day 3 (22 min run/10 min walk)
Saturday: Skipped workout to do yard work

Eating: This week was not such a good week. After weighing in on Sunday at 196.8, we went to lunch at Buffalo Wild Wings. I had a Twisted Margarita and a grilled chicken wrap with french fries. Later that day I had a bottle of wine. I weighed myself on Monday morning and was at 199. Boo. I also had several days that I went a little over my calorie goals. I was a bit of a slacker this week.

Weak Moments/Cravings: Wine! :/

 Next Week's Goals: My goal is to loose between 2-3 pounds this week. I also REALLY need to add in strength training this week!

 

 Have a great week, everyone!

 

Transformation Tuesday

I've been seeing these transformation Tuesday hashtags on Instagram since I started following others going through a weight loss journey of their own. Today I got enough courage to post one myself. I know I am barely into my weight loss journey, and I'm still VERY embarrassed about my body, but I was proud to share how much I have changed it in the last 5 weeks! I still have a lot of work to do, but I'm doing it!!!

Week 5 Recap

Pounds Lost This Week: 3 lbs (16.6 lbs TOTAL)

Exercise: I finished week 5 of C25K! On Friday I was actually able to run the 20 minutes straight! It was such a great feeling to be able to do that. I am still in shock that I have lasted this long.

Sunday was my rest day. I exercised every day besides Sunday. I'm still slacking on crunches and the Bowflex workouts. I did them once last week. I really need to do both, but especially the Bowflex since I am a bit worried about the obstacles in the 5K Foam Fest. I need more arm strength for some of those obstacles.

This last week I:
Walked - 194 minutes
Ran - 57 minutes
Elliptical - 30 minutes

Eating: Sunday was Easter, so of course I had a very filling dinner & dessert. On top of that, my parents had M&M's on their end tables. Oh...there was also wine. ;) On Monday I had Easter dinner again because my mom sent leftovers home with us. My parents also gave us a ton of chocolate. I brought it home and thought that maybe I could control myself. I found out on Monday that I was wrong, so I gave my friend at work the rest of my chocolate for when she had cravings. I had some on Tuesday after I gave them to her. On Wednesday I told her that she can't let me have any more. I was good the rest of the week and stayed under my calorie goal of no more than 1300 calories a day. I have no idea how I lost 3 pounds this week.

Weak Moments/Craving: Wine and chocolate on and a couple days after Easter.

 Next Week's Goals: My goal is to loose between 2-3 pounds this week. I also plan on doing more strength training this week!

Start & 5 Weeks Later

Have a great week, ladies! I know that I will! :)
