DAY 2....AWESOME!

I have had a great day today.  I did have a Krispy Creme donut that one of my co-workers brought to work but I am making that my only sweet for the day.  I had a smoothie and half a banana for breakfast, air popped popcorn for a snack (and the donut), chicken and noodle casserole for lunch, and a protein shake for my post exercise snack.  For dinner I will have chicken and veggies and possibly a small baked potato that is in the fridge and needs to be eaten.  Not bad for day 2! 

I did work out today, even though I would have liked it to have been more intense.  I haven't worked out in a few months so I am trying to get back in the groove before I build the intensity.  My dogs were very grateful for their long walk.  My leg got numb (goes away when I continue to exercise so I am not worried).  It use to keep me from working out but now I realize that I need to work through it for a week or so and then it goes away all together.  It sucks that getting out of the habit for only a few months set me back so far though.  At least I know that it is temporary.

Today I made another decision....boy what is it with these dang decisions I keep making?  :)  I have decided that I am going to participate in a 1/2 marathon.  It is called the Diva Dash and it is in Myrtle Beach in May.  I thought it would be a great excuse for a girls weekend so I invited my good friends Tanja and Steph to join me.  We try to do something each year so this year I thought this would be perfect since we are all trying to get in shape and lose weight.
