May update

Well, it's official. I love my gym. I've been going for 2 1/2 mo now, been trying out new classes, experimenting with different routines and I'm starting to find me nitch.

I go everyday during the week. I've been finding running on m/w/f with strength training & yoga on tue & thurs. It give my shins a break, since I can't seem to keep the shin slips away. The more I get into shape, the better they are feeling and quicker they're healing. 

I love yoga! Ultra stress reliever for me more then anything else, but the stretching and strengthening are great for my running too.  I recently starting attending this Body Pump class. It's weightlifting for your entire body in one great class. 

Running is coming along slowly but surely.  I know it's not much, but I'm up to 3 miles feeling good. One of my favorite things about running is the progress you get to witness in the concrete evidence of your distance and time.  It's definatly not easy day to day, but the end result in so cool. (reminds me of pregnancy! lol)

Dieting isn't as strict as I know I can be, but all and all it's not bad. I've been able to keep losing, so I must be doing something right, huh? lol. I'd like to be ultra dedicated this next week since we're going on vacation the following week. Not only is it a beach vacation, so just one last week to drop maybe another couple lbs, but I also know I'll be on vacation and dieting will go out the window that week, so I'll compensate a little he week before (and probably after too!)

I would really like to try to get a better nights sleep. I've been experiencing a bit of insomnia going to bed. I'm sure alot has to do with DH not being there next to me. :-( but maybe some sort of calming tea or nighttime routine would help. I'm definatly tired, but I still seem to have difficulty falling asleep.(Any tips are greatly appreciated!)
