Day ONE **UPDATE**

-

ok.. I did a 30 min moderate run this morning during the kids track practice. I used my nikeplus to do a "timed" run so it would talk to me every few minutes and say "10 mins completed" etc. until it counted down the last 5 mins.. and that was good.. cause I really wanted to stop.. but it kept saying.. "only 3 mins to go".. etc. .. Yeah.. lovin the Plus.

ends up i ran a little over 3 miles. and it was nice cause i could feel myself get in a relaxed "space" and just enjoy jogging.. like i use to enjoy walking. cool.

Lots to do today..schooling, getting the left over garage sale items out of the workout zone and to the donation place, board meeting tonight... I will lift weights around four. Today i will do upper body.
I am going to have to alter my weight lifting schedule to flow with my runs.. .. more on that when i have more time ...

day one feels great.

**** update***
so its almost 11.. i should be in bed.. i am tired.. heres a quick recap of today
  • no lifting done today.
  • but.. garage/gym is only 10 mins away from being weight lifting ready
  • worked on the garage this afternoon thinking i would have time to actually lift.. but no go.
  • i need to rethink my whole marathon training and weight liftin and what days i will do what on.. hopefully tomorrow i will get a post-plan up for that..
a good day. busy, long.. but good.

still feeling GREAT on no caffeine! sorry i keep mentioning that but this is a HUGE thing for me.. .. Sugar less days are going great too.. i am feeling so great.. and i know i am running so much easier on my runs because i am off all that stuff. (a post on that later too.. i promise)

off to bed..
more tomorrow

18 years of Choosing to Start Over

-
Welcome to were it all started, this space I created in January of 2006 to help me navigate my journey to personal health and fitness. I have come a LONG way from that first post 18 years ago and I am so grateful for all I have learned along the way. I will be coming here a lot more often over the next weeks, months and years as I have decided to begin writing, journaling and sharing here again. I hope and pray you might find inspiration here to help you along your own path to health and fitness. Please note that this 18 year journey consisted of several things I learned that did not work for me, others programs, supplements and others ideas of nutrition, health and fitness. I am leaving all these as is, so you can see my journey. I will be talking more about the different things I tried thru the years and what I learned about myself and what works for me along the way. If anything this blog chronicles my story of starting over and making hard choices to be who I someday dreamed of ...

The Experiement

Ok... so like I have said I have been about 90% raw for the past 3.5 weeks. So what was the Experiement you ask?  To eat "regular" meals for 24 hours and see how I felt. I ate "normal" foods like taco stew, corn bread, eggs, a few cookies (yes, cookies!). This morning I woke up and decided to have some hot decaf tea, eggs, and while my breakfast tasted yummy.. it was no where near as tasty to me as my all fruit breakfasts I have been having. About an hour later I was CRAVING fruit! I also had a slight headache. :( So I grabbed an orange. Later for lunch I had left over taco stew, come corn chips.... and again, while it tasted ok.. was nice and warm .. it left me wanting... CRAVING..  fruit. I also had.. you guessed it... a headache. Also.. last night... I woke up HUNGRY! I havent woken up hungry since giving 801010 a try. Going into this process I didnt think I would last 2 days. After making it over 3 weeks and having amazing results I have just been so shock...
