Make Yourself Proud

Yesterday was BAAAAAAAAAAAAD day for me....not eating or exercising really, but I was SICK.  I don't know if it was a 24 hour stomach bug or some old soup I had in the fridge.  Either way it wasn't fun, BUT I DID get on the scale (prior to vomitting) and was down 4.4!  Brings me down to 248.6!!! WAHOO!

I still got to the gym after I'd emptied my stomach - BAD idea!  I really REALLY wanted to go and NEEDED to go, but after doing my weights (mostly arms) I made it half way through my Week 5 Day 2 of C25K and I had to stop because I was nauseous and light headed, so I gave up with 10 minutes to go.  I was disappointed, but didn't have a choice but to listen to what my body was telling me and my body was telling me I NEEDED to stop.

Today was MUCH MUCH better!  I spent a half hour doing weights and other leg movements (all lower body) and then REdid the Week 5 Day 2 C25K and hope to get my third day of Week 5 in tomorrow while visiting my mom (she has a workout room in her apartment complex).  Either the first day of Week 5 was different or I typed the wrong information when telling you guys about it.  Basically it is Warm Up walk - Run 8 minutes, walk 5 minutes, run 8 minutes and cool down.

Looking at Day 3 - (I'm scared) - Warm up 5 minutes (walk) and run for 20 minutes or 2 miles....that's a 10 minute mile they are expecting....THAT is not going to happen! HAHAHAHA.  I'm not QUITE that fast yet, so I guess I will just do my best and see what it ends up being.  Yikes!

Anyway, I had more of a brunch today due to lack of appetite (bad I know) and haven't really had anything since then.  HOWEVER, my "brunch" was AMAZING, leftover, but still damn good!  A couple nights ago I marinated some chicken and shrimp in a Mexican marinade and grilled it, then combined with some sauteed peppers and onions AND some cilantro quinoa....OMG was it good!!!  I wish I could eat it every day all day, I totally would!

ok ok ok, enough about the food.  I have a bag of 15 beans bubbling away on the stove that I plan to combine with some chicken breasts, taco seasoning, green onion and who knows what else....sounds yummy and healthy.  Can't wait to see how it turns out!

TGIF!
