Work has been more stressful lately and I have allowed myself to use that as an excuse to not do what I am supposed to be doing. I haven't gained any weight, but I haven't lost anything either.
So, I decided to give Weight Watchers a try. I'm not sure what makes me think I will do better at that than I do at My Fitness Pal or with my Fitbit. But I want to try.
Today was a VERY successful day.
Nutrition - I tracked my food and counted my points. My goal was to use only my daily allotted points and not dig into my weekly extra or activity points. I was close. I went one over, but that isn't so bad.
Activity - I was back on my C25K program. I tried the last couple of days, but I was unable to work out at lunch and I just wasn't very successful at running after work. I walked instead which was the best compromise I could find. But today I was back at it at lunch and I attempted 5 minute intervals.
I got through my first three 5 minute intervals, but when I got to the fourth, I couldn't do the whole thing without slowing down. So, I broke them up into 2.5, 2 & 1 minute intervals. But I kept up the pace for all of the runs. I'm going to give it another attempt tomorrow and see if I can stretch it out more.
Water - I drank at least 8 cups today.
I think my hunger was at a very acceptable level. I just have to keep myself accountable. I'm unhappy with myself physically and the only person that can do a thing about that is me.
