Minus Monday---Week 5

I know what you are thinking..."It's Monday! You usually weigh in on Friday?!" Well I did weigh in on Friday, just forgot to post. I didn't have a very on track week, even though I prepared myself and ate healthy things I did have too much veggies...and did sneak a cookie or two at nanas :/. I weighed in at 0.8 up last week....that put my at 194.2. I was bummed at myself and realized getting below 190 for vacation was looking slim.....

Well, TJ left the scale out and I couldn't resist. I really wanted to get to 187 by the time we leave on Friday. In the last 3 days I have lost 3lbs! Luckily my body washed out the bad stuff I have eaten!!!! So here I sit at 191.2 now....thinking 187 might be realistic! I have stuck to plan, and low and behold IT WORKS! Duh Kendra!!!!!

I am also going to prove to myself this vacation that you can vacation and have fun and stick to your plan.....which means when I get home and weigh in I'm gunna loose weight on vacation! Who has heard of that?! HA!! This girl is gunna do it and conquer one of the times that usually gets me way of track. No excuses this time!

On a different note, I also finally conquered my fear for finishing week 5 of the couch to 5k running plan. Day 3 was a 20 minute straight run...no walks to break it up like every other day! I kept going back to week 4 telling myself I couldn't do it. Well Saturday I DID IT! I started a little slower but the last 5 minutes pushed it back up to where I had been running the 5 minute run! Woot! Starting week 6 today. Our first 5k will be at the end of September. I have 4 more training week so I think I will be ready to run the whole thing!

If you ever want to know more about my program shoot me an email or message me on facebook! :) The program is really easy, just like anything else in life you have to be ready to commit to yourself and follow through the plan. I would love to guide you along your weight loss journey as I travel through mine!
