Running, eating & Tuesday night TV

I didn’t want, but I needed, to run today.  It’s been 6 days since I’ve done any type of exercise and my body is not happy with me!  I tried to put it off as long as I could…

hoping the feeling would pass….

but it didn’t.  So, I put my running shoes on and went to the park.

It was 68*F and 47% humidity….but luckily there was a nice cool breeze that made it tolerable.

I don’t know why I fight exercising because once I get going I feel so much better, both physically and mentally.

I only ran 2 miles today….which is good because my goal was 1 mile

I almost stopped off at Baskin Robbins for their $1.50 a scoop family night after my run, but decided against it.  I think it was a good call.  I’m craving something sweet but I don’t have anything in the house.  Well, I do have sugar-free jello pudding in the cupboard.  I guess that will have to do…..

breakfast:

Shredded Wheat, blueberries and 1% milk

lunch:

tuna salad "sandwich"

dinner:

Turkey burger, shredded brussel sprouts and a salad

Since the San Francisco Giants game is over my night is free to watch my other shows.  So, right now I’m watching Kitchen Nightmares which I love!! Then I think I will check out NCIS: LA.  I am one of the few people I know who has never seen it.  Love LL Cool J but haven’t had the chance to check this show out.  Then the show I wait all week to watch:  The Hills, and then The City.  I have become completely addicted to these scripted reality shows. What is wrong with me?!

Well, enjoy your night………

So….dinner was wonderful.  I enjoyed Kitchen Nightmares and NCIS: Los Angeles.  I will admit that I never made dessert.  I had a Snapple Trop-A-Rocka instead.  It did the trick and my “sweet craving” was satisfied!  BTW, thank you Bret Michaels for this sugar-free treat….YOU ROCK!!! Now….on to The Hills and The City

30 Day Shred-Day 9

Well, this is day 9 of doing the Shred. I only have 1 more day for Level 1 and then I’m moving on to Level 2.  I’m excited to try a new workout!!

Well, after watching my SFGiants lose, yet again, to the Oakland A’s I was more than ready to do my workout and expend the frustration I was feeling as a SFGiants fan!  I did the routine following the advanced trainer, well except the push-ups–I still use my knees!!!  The only time I had problems today was towards the end doing the arm raises w/weights.  But, like I’ve said before I’ve always had weak arms and I’m doing my best to strengthen them up!

Well, I am off to watch Celebrity Apprentice and eat dinner.  I have wanted to see Bret Michael’s win this thing since the very first episode.  I was so happy to see him make it to the finals…..a few times I wasn’t sure he would make it!
