A quick update

Alright readers, I know that Shannon and I haven't been posting weekly status updates and letting you know how the training is going.

Shannon and I have been doing different training sessions: Her's are early morning; mine are usually about an hour later.This past week I didn't work out as much as I have been. No excuses except I was sick.

I'm hoping that this week I can get back into training hard. After all the 5K that Shannon and I have been working so hard towards is 11 weeks away and I still can barely walk a mile with out feeling out of breath.


Readers, here's to a new week and to training hard!

Goals and rewards

Alright readers, I've been thinking hard and long about the rewards system for losing weight. I've read so many wonderful things about how that it's a great way to stay motivated to reach your goal.

So here is the list I've compiled for myself as goals that I would like to reach and the rewards that will go along with each goal reached

more and likely I will change some of these as I see fit when I need to. 

Goals	Rewards
Lose 10 lbs by June 28	Treat myself to getting my nails done
·         Lose 25 lbs by August 20	·         New Shoes for the 5K
·         Lose 18 lbs by October  30	·         A new outfit
·         Lose 25 lbs by January 30	·         A trip to the spa
·         Lose 25 lbs by May 9  I will have reached my goal of losing 103 lbs and my goal weight of 112 pounds!	·         A whole new wardrobe

I'm practically giving myself a year readers to do this! It's time to get serious and not lose focus until I reach this goal along with the accomplishing the 5K in September.

Stuck!

I haven't been losing the pounds like Shannon. I have, however, been losing inches. It's good either way. I would like to see the number on the scale start going down that way I know everything I'm doing is working.

I'm so tired of injuries though! UGH! Just when one thing heals, I seem to injure something else. 

Here's to a new week though. I'm full of motivation and hoping that with the healthier eating habits that I can drop some pounds this week. I'm hoping at least 10 lbs. (I'm hoping for that much.) I plan on drinking plenty of water and not eating so much junk food. 



Goals for this week:
* Workout everyday
* Stay focused
* Drink lots of water
* Try and stay away from processed foods


Well readers here's to a new week of staying focused!
