Week two of being serious. Down 1.8lbs. Average of 2.1 over the past two weeks. Not what I'd hoped, and some of my other stats are going all goofy on me, heh. I think it's just stuff adjusting, though, and will settle down as I get more into the weight loss.
This week, we went and bought a juicer. So, for breakfast, I've been doing about 16-20 oz of fruit juices, then 12-16 oz of more-veggie-than-fruit juices, followed by a little snack of greek yogurt in the middle of the afternoon (I've been splurging on some pistachios as well, but that'll stop today.)
For dinner, it's been a fairly balanced, small meal. Maybe with some more juice. It's not a full juice fast, but kind of a half-juice-fast. I'm enjoying it thus far. I feel pretty good through out the day, though there've been a few interesting side effects.
I also went running today! First time since January. I'm just...not good at running in the cold. I need to NOT schedule spring half marathons. Not enough training time that I'll take advantage of. (Alternately, just go to the goddamn gym.)
This morning, I did 4.2 mi. Felt okay afterward, though it felt really slow. Maybe I should not pick a route that is 50% hills? heh. I'd like to go out tomorrow too, but I also have tennis, so I don't want to over do it.
I'd like to get to the point where I'm doing 8 this weekend, but we'll see. I have about a month until the Flying Pirate, so that should be enough time to get back into gear. I don't think it will be an amazing PR for me, but I should PR! That'd be great. Maybe I'll even PR in the 5K. Haha, hopes == high.
In addition...if I can keep up the ~2lbs per week loss, I can be at my goal of 145 by my birthday! I'd honestly be happy with 150, though.
I could be 8lbs down by the race...I'd be happy with 5. 155 would be a good weight to race at.
Anyway. That's the state of me at the moment.
