Week 12 Recap

Wow, what a slacker. I had big plans for last week and then did not blog AT all. Needless to say my diet was still not back up to 'healthy' standards. I did continue my exercise progress (although I missed a few cardio workouts):

March 28 - BodyFlow, BodyPump
March 30 - BodyFlow, treadmill - 2.5 miles, 8 minutes walking, 25 minutes running
April 1 - BodyPump

We also replaced our malfunctioning scale. I got a new weigh in this morning to start my new recommitment. I weighed in today at 165.6, which is up from my low, but still almost 6 pounds from where I started. Considering my vacation and then slowness getting back on track during March, I am happy with where I am.

Although my diet has been lacking this past month, I have 2 great accomplishments since the beginning of the year:
1) Working out - averaging probably 5 workouts a week, including cardio, strength and yoga/pilates. I can now run 25 minutes or 2 miles straight! I feel SO good about that and I love how strong it makes me feel.
2) Water - I have cut down to less than 1 12 ounce soda a day. I used to regularly drink 3-4, but I've replaced that almost exclusively with water. That makes me feel great too!

So, I'm focusing on the positive and plan to work on the healthy eating and number on the scale. Starting TODAY!
