Random & Goals for June.

Show of hands, during a grueling workout at the gym, how many of you out there sometimes find yourselves thinking "gee, I must look pretty funny/silly/ugly/weird etc, right about now"? The last time I was at the gym and I happened to look at the mirrors, I had a good laugh. You should have seen my face. Lol!

Anyways, I have gained about 6lbs. I honestly don't know if it's muscle, fat or water but I do know this, if it's not muscle, it's coming off. On that note I've decided to break my goals for the month of June into weekly goals.

The overall goal for the month of June is to lose 8-10lbs. The goals for the first week in June are to:

• lose at least 2lbs
• exercise for at least 35 minutes, 7 days a week
• eat more fruits and vegetables
• note take any fruit juices and diet coke.

I can do this. I did it before and I will do it again.Sigh

When It's Obvious You Are Failing....

These last two months have been crazy. I think I never fully got back into full gear after my birthday. The exercise has been good but the diet has been really BAD! I finally got the knock I needed when I stood on the scale this morning and saw a number I didn't like. I'm even too embarrassed to share the figure with you :-(.

I guess I know what to do. I always do. Starting from tomorrow, I'm going be embarking on a three day detox to reboot my healthy eating habit. Just fruits and vegetables. I promise to post pictures this time.

Recap in Pictures and Words.

Last week was a great one exercise wise. I attempted my first 10K! It was fantastic and I finished it in 1hr 51mins. As I screamed "yes!" at the gym a few people actually congratulated me for achieving such a feat. :-).

I did it! 1hr 51mins

Then on Saturday I did a 5K in 52minutes; which is an improvement from 54 minutes. It felt really good to be jogging for 20 minutes straight.

Me getting ready to take a shower after my 5k.

The sad part is that I haven't been eating so well. To top it all I had severe diarrhea on Saturday and Sunday :-(
Guess that was my body's way of getting rid of all the bad stuff and sending me a message. This week will be better.

Started the day with a 5K walk/jog and some ab/arm exercises. Happy Monday to you all. Don't forget to exercise today :-)
