Well, the day has come and gone. This morning's session was harder than I hoped (after how well Monday went), but, hey!, I still made it. Biking to and from work wasn't as hard today as it was some days last week. In fact, I felt like I was keeping a better cadence in the saddle. [I should note that a few days during the past couple of weeks had me riding into a head-wind--basicly making me like a sailboat trying to go against the wind--so that might have been why it was harder then.] My legs are still reminding me that I put them through their rounds this morning, but there's no back pain, no shin pain, and my feet feel fine.
It was tough to stay to a reasonable portion tonight--spaghetti and our own homemade meatsauce (with fresh oregano and rosemary from my herb pot), but I did it. Not too much when served, and just a nibble more for the taste. Okay, a couple of nibbles for taste! Far better, however, than eating two full plates as would have been my pattern before. Baby steps.

You are doing great! I started running for the same reason. I want to run with my daughter.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping in. I wish my reason was only to run with my son--my health has suffered from my weight, and my last medical appointment in August scared the snot out of me. I knew what was happening before my lab work went in, but to see the results on paper was sobering nonetheless. So far, the past 2.5 weeks have been better--better eating, better sugar control, and a better outlook! Thanks for reading and posting a comment. It means a lot to me.
