Week One Day two of couch to 5 k running plan is done. I didn't feel quite a bad today...no swollen fingers...I still wanted to quit but I just imagined Jillian Michaels yelling, "The only way you are getting off that treadmill is if you DIE!"

Yesterday I lifted weights in the AM, started the day off somewhat healthy with an egg beater, mushroom and spinach, lunch was a bowl of ramen noodle soup, snack was popcorn, and then it all fell apart...some Oreo cookies showed up in our house...I can't remember the last time I had a Oreo cookie...I didn't stop with just a serving...sigh...back on plan today...

Maybe I should actually sign up to run a 5K in about 10 weeks...I'll have to think about that! Running in public, not a good image right now!

Goal for today is to put the scale away. I get really hung up on the numbers and when they refuse to move I get discouraged and give up...so no scale no chance for discouragement!! Wish it were that easy! But I'm changing the focus from numbers motivated to exercising and eating better...
