I went to the gym today and walked / ran for 2 miles. I am doing intervals. I walk for 2 minutes and then run for 2 minutes. I feel pumped! Usually – read “every, single, time” – I lower the speed of the treadmill as I approach my goal-time. But, today, I pushed myself and I did the routine, exactly like I was supposed to. When I finished, I was dripping with sweat and I was breathing heavily, but I felt GREAT.
I’ve created a new chart so that I can track three important goals. I want to avoid fast food, exercise 30 minutes a day, and stay on my eating plan. Here’s my current chart –
I haven’t eaten fast food for more than 2 weeks! Amazing.
I’ll have a weigh in in the morning.
Have you read _The Omnivore’s Dilemma_ and _Fast Food Nation_? Those two books made me not even WANT to eat fast food anymore (which, really, is great for weightloss, even though that wasn’t my primary point for reading them).
I love your chart. It’s like a glorified Seinfeldian Chain. 😉
I need to get my hand on The Omnivore’s Dilemma. I’ve heard great things…
For running, I can highly recommend the Couch to 5k Running Plan. It starts with intervals and builds up to running 5k three times a week. I really enjoyed it.
Congratulations on hitting two weeks fast-food free!
