I successfully ran the Nelson 5K on April 16. I'm not even going to post my time, it was slow. I ran with my sister who had adhered to Couch to 5K plan much better than I did. Don't know if you remember the morning of April 16. In Lovingston, VA it was pouring rain and about 50F. In some parts of the county it rained 7 inches that day. Yet we ran and we questioned our sanity, but it was a bonding experience.
Sometime in the last few weeks I weighed myself. Since Christmas I have cut out soda and meat and recently sugar. When I weighed myself I was only down one more pound since I started all this nonsense! I can see why people feel defeated. I mean really. I should stop depriving myself and eat what I want and gain back the 2 lousy pounds that I've lost.
Granted, I have not been exercising regularly. I need to get a schedule going again. I need to start working on arms. My new career, ultrasound, will depend on upper body strength to stop me from getting musculoskeletal injuries.
