Proud of... Me?

It's weird to feel this proud of myself. I have been busting my ass to workout and eat healthy. I  might be losing weight slower than I'd like to be, and running at a pace that is walking for some, but I AM doing it. I AM losing weight. I AM going to the gym. I AM getting healthier. I am going to be able to carry my baby for 9 months. I'm going to be able to walk around Disney and Universal next February and not need an ECV. I am going to start enjoying my life.

Tuesday night I went to yoga for the first time. I can't believe how much I enjoyed it. It was challenging and two days later I can definitely feel it, but I loved every sweat filled minute and plan top make it part of my weekly routine.

I also agreed to join my friend Ashlee in doing Mudderella this September. It looks very intense, and offers it's own training program to prep for it. I am going to start that this week as well. There are a ton of obstacles and a bit of running so I plan to keep up my 5k training too.

So my training is going to include Couch 2 5k training, the Mudderella workouts, and yoga on Tuesdays :) I have a whole typed up plan which I haven't followed this week very well, but I am working on it.

I really want to run a 5k before Mudderella, so I'm looking for one to run in August. Here is my schedule of upcoming events I would like to participate in:

August: Glow in the Park
September: Mudderella
October: Wicked Halloween Run (Plymouth, MI) 10/26
November: Turkey Trot (Detroit, MI) Thanksgiving Day


We'll see how this goes. :) I'm just happy that this is my new focus. I'm sure Matt loves how much money I've been spending... Please read the sarcasm here...
