Let's get right to it.
Finally, a loss!!
The past few weeks, the scale has not been my friend.
2/18 - 182.2
2/25 - 184.2
After a frustrating 2lb gain last week, I am SO happy to see a 3.2lb loss. I have high hopes to saying sayonara to the 80's and seeing the 70's next week.
On Monday, I participated in the #4weeksfit linkup hosted by Love, Fun and Football and
Mama & Mou and set some monthly goals for March.
One goal is to drop 6lbs. Since today is my first weigh-in of March, I will be using 181 as my starting weight. This means that I hope to be down to 175 by the end of the month.
Monday, I had also mentioned that I had hopes of getting my 30 minute running mileage up to 3 miles. After yesterday's run, I don't think I'm going to make it.
Maybe yesterday was just a bad day for running, but hot damn, my run was tough!
I normally get really sweaty when I workout, but usually the sweat doesn't start pouring out until about halfway through the run. Yesterday, I felt really hot and flushed after about 2 minutes. I was completely drenched in sweat by the the time 30 minutes wrapped up. About 2 hours after my run, I was still quite red in the face.
A couple times, when I finished my run intervals, I felt dizzy. My last run interval, I was SO tempted to just walk. Somehow, I stuck it out and finished strong.
I am very glad I have a day off from running today!
I mixed up my strength training days, and did upper yesterday instead of lower so today I'm doing this beast
Repeat 2-3 times?! Ummm, I'm going to be lucky if I make it through once!
I started this morning before work, and so far I've completed 100 squats, 90 walking lunges, and 80 mountain climbers. My legs felt very noodley after that! I will finish the rest of the list after work.
Happy Wednesday!
My face gets beet red after running too. Way to push through!
