Starting to enjoy running...is that possible?

So I tried to do the Shakeology fast, but I get really cranky and moody when I'm hungry and can't eat. So my husband and I decided that it just wasn't working. It's really hard watching someone eat when you can't. It doesn't help that I've been watching the Food Network. I was so close to eating my TV. Those channels are going to have to be blocked, it's like food porno.

Just ran my first 25 minute run. It was actually a 20 minute run, 3 minute walk, and 5 minute run. Though my next run is 26 minutes straight. This is a big thing for me since I used to hate running, but since I started running distances and times that I have never run before, I've started to almost like running. But I seem to be only able to run with my husband or another person who is better than me. It keeps me going. Makes me accountable to someone else. If left on my own I would probably quit as soon as I started to get tired, so the first 5 minutes. I probably need to start running on my own during the day. Yeah, we will have to see how that goes.....

Shakeology Fast: Day 1

I fell off the wagon yesterday.                         Who am I kidding, I jumped head first off the wagon into liquor, beer, dough balls, a pizza and desert all washed down with a bottle of wine. I got on the scale this morning to see just how bad it was, and it was bad. All the hard work I had been putting in over the past month was almost completely ruined by one night of fun. 

So I am getting back on the wagon. Full force! Going to be doing a Shakeology Fast, which is basically having 3 shakes a day with a healthy snack in between shakes. Today's snack is 1 banana total for the day.

And we are getting back on the exercise wagon too. I had been doing really well up till 2 days ago. No more breaks, no more days off. I am signing up for a 5K and need to train. So, there will be Insanity everyday and running every other day.

I reached my highest weight while living abroad with my husband. I am stuck at home with nothing to do. So far we have lived in England for almost a year. Right before we moved abroad, my husband and I got married. I was around high 30's low 40's then and was happy, fine, at least lazy enough to not care about my extra padding. With nothing to do over here has left me with a lot of free time. Free time = boredom which leads to eating...

But then I was on vacation with my weight obsessed mother. She is ... difficult. She felt the need to pull my husband aside and tell him that I and "dangerously overweight" OUCH!!

So I made the choice to do something about it.
I will lose the weight by the time I go home for Christmas
