Julie’s Never Say Diet Journey

Hey Everyone..Sorry I haven’t been on like I was. I used to have a laptop..but now the powercord broke..so if I am on the computer it is at rand0m times throughout the day. Anyways…I have lost 3 lbs since July 4th. I know it is slow..but that is 1.5 a week…not bad. I havent been the best I can be lately..time to get better. I am working out..eating right,but I know I could do more!~ Lov ya! Jules

So I gave up on the 8 week training thing. I dunno….maybe just taking a break from it. But instead I decided to get on a run a solid mile straight through. I did it with ease! Before..I was dying or had to stop before I was done. I ran the entire thing at 4.5 mph and before I was struggling with 4 mph. I am so proud of myself..soon 2 miles will be nothing. I could have ran more but I had things to do! This feels great! Lov,Jules

Well, I made some choices today that are not my normal choice lately.  I worked out hard today and I don’t feel bad about it. I had a cheese burger from McDonalds since they were on sale. I went to the movies and had some popcorn…not the whole bucket like I used to.  Maybe I should feel bad about it..but I don’t. I am not going back to my old ways…I just had some good food in moderation. This isnt a new habit..just a treat. My first bad decision…maybe , that I have had in a month of eating right. So…tomorrow is back to my perfect choices.

Hey Everyone..Feeling much better than yesterday. I walked a mile yesterday and it felt like I was running 10. I just felt real bad. Today I just finished running at 4.3 miles per hour..and I burned a hard core sweat. This is the best day of running. I felt kind of fit! Hey!

Measured my waist today… 38 1/2 …..that is a lost of 10 inches!

I’ll do the rest tomorrow! I am exhausted…time to have a power nap and then off to bible study! Lov this place! Lov my life!

I came home sick from work today. I feel ok…but my stomach is upset. I started feeling kinda bad last night. I have been resting all day and feel really lazy. (Like the old Jules)  I was thinking of getting on the treadmill for a lil while to walk today. Do u think I should? Or..should I keep resting today so I can be 100% tomorrow. I feel like I am making excuses..even though I really feel lousy. Let me know what u think./..Jules

Hey Every…just wanted u to know I didn’t fall off the earth. I was celebrating my 6 yr old step-son’s birthday! We had quite a busy weekend. I am still doing good with the food thing, and I walked this weekend too,with weights. Now today is my day 15 of my running program. Run 5, walk 2mins, should be rough.

Kerstin..Thanks for checking on me! I appreciate it!  Well, I am at work suppose to be watching kids. Be on later! Lov,Jules

Hey everyone! I am missing a fat roll! I looked in the mirror today and it is gone! Now, if u see it somewhere..tell it to keep running far away unless he wants to come back and get the others! It is amazing how much my body is changing! Just thought I’d share this odd, but great news! Lov,Jules

Hey everyone..I am doing alot better today. I felt good, and I ran my running scheduled. I am on Day 3 week 2 of my 8 week plan. I feel amazing. Finally feel like I am losing weight again, for some reason..I have felt like my weight wasn’t moving. I don’t know if it was or not, no scale. I want to thank those who left some encouragement on my last blog. I think I am out of my funk…now I am just tired. Lov ya!

Well, I was kind of crabby today and wasn’t in the mood to do anything. I got mad at my husband for no reason, and I just wanted to go to sleep all day long. BUT…I walked on the treadmill, did my stretching, and then a 20 minute segment of pilates. I feel good about losing weight..but I am just blah! I don’t know why Im feeling like this so often lately, probably because of not having enough money to do anything I want. It’s frustrating. I keep praying and I know God will get us through this..but I need to get out of my funk.  I went to the library today and read Jared’s subway diet book and it was interesting. More of a biography..but I finished it already.   That’s my day…Lov ya’ll! Jules
