Getting Fit?

I decided last week that I was going to be public about getting back into running shape. There are two reasons I wanted to do this. The first is that it will put some pressure on me to amp my training. The second is that I didn\’t call attention to my past weight loss until I hit my target goal. It is fun to tell people that you lost 80 pounds after you get skinny, but it doesn\’t really help anyone.

So here we go! I am tracking weight and cardio distance.

Week 1: 207.4 pounds with no cardio
Week 2: 210 pounds with 11.4 miles of cardio

I didn\’t behave in Memphis. My diet will be the death of me if I don\’t turn this around. Any advice/recipes would be appreciated. I also need to make water my main drink again.

This was a better week for fitness! I got in my weight lifting days. I am trying to add more lunges into my life! It really seems like my lower back is letting me down these days. I also finally got some cardio in! 50 minutes on a bike with 11.4 miles logged! I have to do at least 3 days of cardio next week.

I like to listen to audiobooks during long cardio sessions. I started Good Omens by Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett. Pretty funny and very British. Not sure if it is for everyone. I love nerding out to Gaiman\’s stories. I am sure the 12.5 hours will go by in a flash!

I will be checking in again next week!
