Just a quick update to end out the weekend. Hubby is grocery shopping right now (squeee - I hate grocery shopping!)...
Great weekend - big news is that I completed W5D3 of C25K!!!! That's 20 straight minutes of running and it was really not that bad. When the recorded voice in my app came on after the 20 minutes and said "walk" I burst out crying. I have NEVER run 20 minutes straight in my life. It was incredible.
Eating has been ok this weekend but I haven't tracked. Need to be on top of that next weekend, but at this point, I'm still proud of myself for running, so I am not as worried about Points+ and weight watchers.
Tomorrow when the scale has not moved I will be worried again.
Until Monday.... later!
:)
I RAN 20 MINUTES PEOPLE!!! :)

Temptations
The next two days are going to seriously test my will power. We have two staff lunches; one today and one tomorrow. Today's lunch is pizza and salad. I have planned for a low pt breakfast so can do one slice of veggie pizza and a swack of salad. Followed by Tuxedo Mousse Cake... Ugh... my favorite.
Tomorrow is a good bye lunch for the wicked witch of the north. (I'm not a fan of her!). Lunch is sushi and other japanese assortments (edamame, tempura, noodles etc) and cheesecake.
Seriously?? Normally I would skip, just say, thanks but no thanks, but I should attend both of these.
Wednesday Goals:
1. Drink 3 litres of water! CHECK
2. Stay within DP! CHECK
3. Laundry - I know this has nothing to do with losing weight but it will keep me busy :) CHECK
4. cut up fruit and freeze for smoothies CHECK
5. Look up some Arm exercises to do with free weights CHECK and did em too!
Today's Goals:
1. Keep out of the cake!
2. Drink my water
3. C25K - big run tonight!
4. 200 situps
5. Continue to collect info for taxes (ugh)!
I'm excited about the run tonight. Did fret about it a bit last night and couldn't sleep. Stupid I know... trying to decide if I will hit the track or head to the gym. I don't really want to start on the treadmill and then have to take it back outside once the asshats are done with their construction project.
Looks like lots to report back tomorrow - temptations and goals. Wish me luck!

I'm stressing just a bit
about my run tonight... It's week 5 of C25K, which means 3 5 minute run intervals. I think I'll be ok. Actually I know I will. I think the stress is more in what is come in 2 more runs. The dreaded "20 minute non stop, no running, I think I'll be dying" run.
Baby steps right?
We'll see.
