Day One - Habit Change and Take Shape For Life

So today was Day One.

The Five and One plan from TSFL was not as bad and empty as I had imagined.  I was able to keep stay pretty well on my plan.  I was even able to opt out of rolls and potatoes from Maddox (church Christmas party) and the 3 tables of homemade treats.   I filled up on salad, and the meat on a breast of chicken.   Did I mention I love Maddox?  Interesting how each time we make a choice for health....our "ability" to do it the next time is stronger!  I have a really good feeling about this new plan for my health!

I had this faint feeling of freedom, and it was refreshing.  A slight remembrance of "her" the girl that saw food as just that...food.  It didn't have any power or control.  Self-shaming, and regret gone. I'm liking the reminder of me at my best.  One day closer to constant freedom...

We love to exercise together, including weight lifting, but running on the treadmill is a whole different beast. 2) We signed up 1 week before race day. That doesn't give us much time to get prepared in any way shape or form for running 6.2 miles. 3) We know absolutely nothing about running! I tried by best to talk her out of it, or at least talk her into doing some training and signing up for another race, but it was useless. She had her mind made up. Before I knew it, I was signing up for a 10K! Me....the "fat girl" who never even got to take gym in high school because her doctor thought she wasn't ...
