New things, new things

So, today was my sixth day doing the Couch-to-5K program. The first day I actually started a little bit slower than recommended, doing 30 seconds of running to 60 seconds of walking (instead of the 60/90 ratio that the official site states), but the next day went up to 45/90 and then 60/90 by the end. This week I'm on track with 90/120, though I may stretch it out a few more days, 3 minutes sounds like such a long time...

So that's been my exercise, and I'm also doing weight watchers again. I'm actually paying for the online tracking service this time instead of relying on the magic of Google (uh oh, if SOPA passes that may get my blog deleted), but I haven't been keeping to it as well as I ought to. I'm going to start being more serious though - today I kept right on track, and it is Sunday so it's the beginning of a new week!

In addition to the diet and exercise I joined a weight loss program through my doctor, and she prescribed me Phentermine. I'm keeping a close eye on possible side-effects, but so far I feel pretty normal. Of course, I'm only on day 3, but still - watch and see, yeah?

With any luck the combination of the three will get me losing and stat, I'm ready for it!
