I actually woke up to my alarm this morning and not before like I do often mornings.  I guess I was tired and the fact that I didn’t turn off the TV until 11:00pm.  My husband and I got sucked into watching the show, Intervention on A&E. It’s heartbreaking at times.  Makes me really thankful I had amazing parents and grew up in a stable environment.  I set a new PR last night while running! I finished my first mile in 10:12…I am trying to get to a 10 min mile. I’m sooooo close! I then ran a total of 3.1.  My leg started hurting so I called it a night. I learned my lesson the last time I tried to just “run it off” Ouch!  Any who, today is week 2, Day 2 of my training- back and biceps.  I will have to go to the gym tonight for this workout. I have been thinking about switching back to fitness lady. I hate the hours there but LOVE the fact that’s its all women. I have tried to tell myself to just get over it about lifting weights in from of the guys at Anytime but I can still feel myself getting uncomfortable at times…just because I feel like I have no clue what I am doing..and there are so many dern mirrors!  We'll see, they have an online thing for a free 7 day pass so I may sign up for that to see if I like it. I managed to eat 3 egg whites with a wedge of laughing cow lite cheese and ½ cup oatmeal with almond milk, splenda, and PB2 for breakfast. Snack was my usual carrot protein bar and lunch was ½ grilled chicken breast, and loads of baked veggies that I cooked last night.

(sorry so blurry..don't know what's up with that?)

Carrots, broccoli, and celery.  I usually hate celery but this was actually pretty
good. o yeah, Know what else is awesome!?  I found a recipe on Jamie Eason’s blog for lemon protein bars…I can’t wait to make those! Yum…love, love, love lemon! For supper I had salsa chicken on a whole wheat wrap with spinach, avocado, dab of light sour cream, light cheese, and salsa. I was very good. Then I hit the gym. I ended up doing about 40 min on the elliptical. I was only going to do about 20 since the first phase of the plan doesn't suggest any cardio, but I got sucked into Pandora's wedding on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. 

  I'm off to get some Zzzz and some snuggle time with my baby girl! :)
