Week 1, Day 1 – January 2

Workout
21 minutes walking, 5 minutes running on treadmill – 1.7 miles

Diet
Breakfast: Balance bar, banana
Lunch: ¼ c. hummus, 2 small whole wheat pitas, 8 baby carrots, 2 celery stalks, pear
Snack: none!
Dinner: 2.25 ounces fresh pasta, 1/2 c. bolognese sauce
Snack: individual bag of light popcorn, cherries

What a great first day! We woke up early and went to the gym to use the treadmill. I had a great diet day too. I'm really trying to focus on the right portions rather than cutting out certain foods entirely. I ended up a little low on calories at the end of the day, so I added a bag of popcorn (100 calories). I'm really proud of my good start.

Good luck in 2007! Sounds like you are off to a great start. I've found that, like you, it is better to limit portions than cut things out all together and feel deprived. Keep up the good work. You'll be running a 5K in no time!
