Long Time No See

Sorry for the major delay in posting!

Recap:
I lost 1 pound at the one week mark!! I also hit the road for the first time in a long time, and busted out a 12:30 mile for 2.4 miles. It felt pretty good (afterwards) knowing that even though I didn't stick with what I had started back in Jan/Feb, I was able to dig deep enough to push through discomfort and finish.

I'm coming up on the two week mark and so far have Shredded for five days in a row, and ran once more. I was on a retreat this weekend, and woke up fourty minutes early to go on a trail run. I'm not sure how far I went, but I was out running for 30 minutes. It felt pretty amazing to be the only person not tired at breakfast because I had already been pumping blood to my muscles.

In bigger news:
My roommate joined MFP with me! She hit the one week mark today, she hasn't updated her profile so I don't know what her progress is yet, but I'm excited to find out. It's motivating to have the person your living with say "Hey, want to Shred tonight?" when you get home. Or to say "I had to steal your recipe for taco salad, it was so good!" or "I still have 300 calories for today, do you have allowence for dessert?" Now when I feel like I want to give in to cravings, or skip a work out, I turn to her for motivation. We have a conversation about what we ate today, or how long we want to work out. It's pretty great.

Tomorrow is weigh in day! I'll keep you posted. :D
