Feel A Little Lighter These Days

Rejoice!! I started my training at 158 pounds, goal weight 140, current weight....wait for it.....150! So I am def. feeling a little lighter these days. I'd like to be 148 before I run Goofy in January, 2012.

Overall my eating habits have changed (less carbs, more protien - lots of nuts and Greek Yogurt which is really high in protein) but the decrease in my weight may also have something to do with my training (you can't not lose weight if your training 6 days a week).

I have, however, had this week off work - been sick. Just could not get enough sleep this week, most nights was having a nap before dinner, bad head cold and just plan dragging myself around. It was tough cause we went out twice this week (once for a work shopping event which could not be missed and then to the hockey game which my hubbie was looking forward to - would have just loved to have gone home to bed instead).

Coach said to be careful as the signs of over training is getting sick. Will see how it goes, if I get sick again you can bet I'll be taking it a bit easier. But for now I am running 32K tomorrow, I have my fingers crossed I'll be running on clear pavement and that it will be warm.

Cheers and Happy Holidays
