Before After

Day 3 of Operation G.Y.A.I.G

So much for a catchy title ey?! lol.

Well, I've been eating pretty well. Probably not eating as much as I should but often enough so I'm not really worried.

I haven't ate out since my vow Saturday...If I make it til this Saturday I will have lived up to my week of no eating out! Quite an accomplishment for someone who at one point was eating out EVERY day! Yea, I was trippin.

Today I've had:
B- fiber 1 bar, banana & V8
S-applesuace & 100 cal snack
L-TBA
S-TBA
D-TBA

So I've vowed to get.my.ass.in.gear and there's no turning back now.

Yesterday our school sent out a fitness newsletter and I think it was like a wake up call for me...We are having a 5k next Saturday...Which is 8 days away, I want to do it, badly BUT I know I'm not ready. I haven't ran in weeks and to freshly run a 5k, I might hurt myself...I've never ran 3 miles consecutively, a week to get ready isn't enough time, is it??? I need suggestions on that one. AND it's only $5 to enter.

ALSO: starting the 27th our gym is having a bootcamp. It's a 4 week bootcamp that meets every Monday Wednesday and Friday at *gasp* 6:30a.m. It's $50 but it's with professional trainers and it's described as a "rigourous work out to get you back feeling and looking better." Exactly what I need! Not bad for $50 bucks huh?! And if I put my money into I know I'll stick to it. I usually work and stay in Houston Fridays-Mondays but I need to start making some sacrifices if I'm gonna get healthy. I've come to far to give up. I think I'm going to do it! Now how the HELL am I gonna get up that early is beyond me! *le sigh* I'll keep you guys posted.

So a lot of opportunities to G.M.A.I.G have arose. I have NO more excuses.

I have a male friend/interestee that I usually hang out with when I'm Houston. He's not healthy AT ALL. We are always going out to eat, eating desserts and what not. I have to get him to either A. eat healthier or B. cook when I'm there. Both sound unappeasing. Blah.

Random tidbit: I really want to lose weight so I can get a pair or True Religion jeans, am I vain?! :(

Another random tidbit: I have on the CUTEST yellow shorts today...$2.50 from Old Navy. They had a great sale a couple of weeks ago. Love it!

Ok, I'm outta here. leave your suggestions please!

Walk it

Can you run/walk the 5k? 

Anyway. Sounds like you're doing well.  Can you talk to new male friend and teach him some healthy habits.

Oh, I want some True Religion jeans too.  But I can't afford them even if I were small enough.  OOH!  We have a second hand "Designer" boutique here.  I'll have to remember that.

Yeah, what TM said!

'Sup girlie!  How's it going? 

I agree with what TatumsMom said--walk it.  It would be a great way to just get your body used to going for 3 miles.  Just an idea! 
Take care!

Hey

I think you should do the 5K even if you have to walk, like Endurer said it will give you an idea of what it feels like to go that distance.
