Back on Track

I would like to report that I appear to be back on track! Since February 1st, I have cut way, way back on my wine and am drinking a lot more water. I am making better decisions with my snacking and am keeping Larabars or Kind bars in my purse.

I've also started walking/running. Our new neighborhood is full of fantastic hills to help make it a real workout. I have finally figured out a way to get my workout and still include Morgan...she goes with me on my cool down lap. We get our time together and I get a walk/run without the guilt.

I hope soon to be typing run/walk as my stamina and knee & back adjust to this type of workout again. And, I cannot wait to start going out when the sun is rising...the most peaceful time of day.

Today, I did 1.5 miles in 25 minutes. 12 1/2 minute miles with half of it up hill isn't too bad.

Disappointing

I haven't blogged or exercised in a while. One word describes this: disappointing! I have been drinking a lot more water, less wine and eating better.

I am going to try setting my alarm clock this week to get up and work out. Starting tomorrow. Sunday is not a day of rest around here!

I will update you tomorrow. Excited?
