Strive for progress, not perfection. -Unknown

Body - Last week my body was working with me not against me.  I still ran twice before class, but not as far.  One day I ran around the shopping center boot camp is located in three times (very interesting) and the other day I ran 2.5 miles instead of 3.3 miles.  During the 2.5 mile run, my body felt strong and I only stopped once during the hill at the end.  After my runs, in class I was still able to keep up with the group and not feel like I'm about to black out!!  I love the transformation I feel in body, even though I don't see it in the mirror.  I wonder when my mind will catch up with my body???  Overall, my body feels healthy.  Usually I'm so tired throughout the day, but since I started boot camp I'm more focused at work and tasks in general, however on Fridays my body crashes HARD!!  Last Friday, I eat dinner then sat on my couch to watch a movie around 8pm, next thing you know I woke up and it was 3am!!

Learning -  I'm writing down what I eat and am more conscience of where my pitfalls are.  Pretty much it's Friday, Saturday and Sunday.  Friday dinner is never the heathiest, Saturday if I go out to a restaurant with friends I make bad decisions and Sunday my mom usual doesn't make the healthiest food for dinner so I usually slip up there.  Also, I've realized I don't track my food unless it's healthy stuff...interesting.  I'm also learning to listen to my body.  There are days when mentally I think I can do more, but my body is telling to slow it down.  I'm still looking for recipes I can make in large quantities Sunday night so I won't have to cook for the rest of the week.  

Observations -  None for this week.

Goals - My goal this week (and weekend) is to write down the good and bad stuff that I eat. 

Set - I really didn't have a chance to research nutrition and meal options like I wanted to last week, so I'm going to try and focus on that this week along with pushing myself as hard as I can in class.

  1. Let's you, me and Ash sit and look at what you are eating and at what time.... this could be the cause of the crash. :)
