Feeling Motivated!

After successfully staying on plan through the weekend and watching the scale move down even a little bit more this morning, I am feeling very motivated!

I have never really been a fan of running, but I keep going through stages where I give it a shot. Saturday, while on the treadmill, I just started running, then I did intervals the remainder of the time I was on there.

Then Sunday morning, I went outside to walk, and as soon as I stepped out of the garage, I just started running? So again, I did spurts of walking and running while I was outside.

Monday morning, I stepped on the treadmill, and again, felt like running for a while. I only did 45 minutes since I was running a bit behind for the day, but I did a run/walk between 4.0 mph and 5.0 mph at 2 minute intervals. I knew I'd had a good cardio workout when I got off, and the small spurts of running the last three days had caught up with my legs!




I have been making the effort to make myself do my exercise early in the day (well, before 10:00), and I notice it helps prevent me from eating more than I should throughout the day. It's one of those things that I know always works best for me, but sometimes it's just so dang hard!!

Not promising myself a run every day, but I do think it may be part of the reason the scale is working so well for me these past few days. :)
