Anyways so my main point is it will be harder for me than usual to stay on track these next 3 months. It is the busiest time of year at work and I will be putting in a lot of extra hours. The best weapon I have is my motivation. I am determined to not let this stress and busyness make me slip up on my healthy plans!
I have my 5K coming up on Saturday and I am super excited about it. I ran for 4 miles on Sunday night in 42 minutes! It took me 29 minutes to run 3 miles and this is what the distance is for the 5k roughly 3.1 miles. I feel much more confident now. I know I will do fine and I know I will be able to finish.
To help keep me motivated through the stress and shorter time I plan to keep running 3 times a week. I will do cardio 3 other days a week and take 1 rest day. I am loving the Shred It With Weights with the kettle bell so I will keep doing that 3 days a week and No More Trouble Zones 2 days a week. I also will be cooking tons on Sundays my day off from work and having healthy options around me at all times. Everyday I pack a big bag for work with my snacks and lunch so I stay on track. I made a nice big batch of veggie soup tonight to get me through the rest of this week.
I have come up with a phrase I will remind myself every time now when I am eating "make every point count". With Weight Watchers we use a point system to calculate the amount of calories we eat and how much we exercise. So for me I want to make every point count when I am eating. I do not want to "waste" points on food that I know has little to no nutritional value and is simply not going to satisfy me. So I will make every point count every day and I know I will be more successful!
