In the beginning.....

ok. so i wanted to start today with my running. I went to bed at like 10:30 but right when we were going to sleep the baby woke up. I fed her and then was asleep by 11:00. Then she woke up 4 times in between 11 and 6:45. it was a rough night. As i was feeding her I was already making excuses. "I'm so tired. Ella has been up all night. it's already 7:00 and i won't be able to run long enough." I thought to myself, " Your sisters can't hear your excuses only you can hear them." So, I got up and went running. Even though by the time I got to the gym it was 7:45 and I only had 15 minutes to run I decided to just give it my all and see how fast i could do one mile. So, I ran and did intervals of one minute. I walked for two minutes and then increased the intensity every minute for five minutes and then repeated it two times and I was sweating really good by the end. It was only 15 minutes. And I have to admit, this morning I got up because I didn't want to have to tell you guys that I didn't do my work out this morning. I didn't do it for me. Soon i hope I will get to the point where I am doing it for me but until then, thank you for being the voices in my head telling me "I can do it!" They are way better then my own voice that only seems to tell me negative things. I feel great and I have my plan for the week. I am going to write it here for me. If you want to do something similar cool if not do what works for you, just do it!

My eating goal this month is to only drink soda once a week (since giving this up 100% usually just sets me up for failure) and be aware of what I am putting in my mouth.

Alan is going to help me set up the calendar on gmail for us to use. I'll try and get it up soon.
I love you guys and thanks for all your positive attitudes!
