30 Day Challenge Update

Good Morning,

This will probably be a brief update but just wanted to give you the truth about the 30 day challenge. This morning I woke up and new I didn't have to be in work right away so almost put the snooze and was going to just work out after I slept a little bit longer. I immediately decided that was a bad idea and that would turn into sleeping in more and more then just going well I can just get a coffee and biscuit into the office today will be my day off. So reluctantly I got dressed and headed to the gym. I was going to do the treadmill today and follow one of the exercise from Couch to 5k - one of my favorite apps. It does a great job getting people who don't like running (me) to be able to run for 30 minutes. However, after I accomplished this I still don't like running haha so now I just use the work outs here and there to keep my cardio up. After 10 minutes and 2 running sprints I decided I did want to do this and put it at a walking pace. I was a little frustrated with myself but I just did not feel like doing it. Anything is better than nothing so I decided to walk the rest my cardio. Also, I promised myself if I did do cardio full out for 30 min I would walk 40 just to make up for that a bit. It was a struggle to stay on as I just didn't want to work out this morning and I was craving some starbucks. Starbucks is probably the only thing I'm really missing right now. But I pulled out the 40 minutes and did my arms/back routine then had my health protein shake and green tea. Been pretty busy at work and already had my healthy lunch but still having cravings of sandwiches, chips, and still starbucks :) I'm holding strong though! One more workout of this week and going a little easy on myself with the diet during the weekend so something to look forward to!
