10 week challenge

This summer has gone by so fast.  The weather has been ok.  We have had some hot days and some cool days.  I would say this has been the coolest summer (weather wise) that I have experienced since moving here.

Well I just signed up for 16 weeks of the on-line program (again) with J.  This time I have promised myself that I will take it seriously and do the workouts and eat as clean as possible.  I am done with having a hard time going shopping, with feeling fat and miserable.  I know that when I was exercising regularly and eating healthy I felt so happy and content.

So in 10 weeks we will be getting ready to go on a cruise with the kids.  I want to have 20 lbs off by then which would be 2 lbs/week which is realistic.  I know I can do it if I stick to the plan.  It would be so nice to not have to worry about not having any clothes to wear.  I am going to ST 3x/week and do my best to run 4-5x/week to build up my endurance.  I need to take it slow and know that walk breaks are ok as I have not run very much in the last 9 months.

I am going to make sure to meal prep and my snack at nights will be a healthy smoothie instead of my pop and a snack (which usually ends up to a few snacks).  I need to work on just 1 pop/day too.  I drink way to much diet pop and would love to give it up but it is just too hard for me to do that.  Maybe one day I will stop drinking it.

Well I am working tonight so I am going to have a nap.  I walked 6K and did my 1st day of strength training so I am sure a sleep will come easy (or at least I hope it does).
