What are those?
I’ve been injured and busy and depressed. But I got at it again. And for three weeks I’ve been slowly easing in to Sydney Cummings’s daily workouts—modifying where I need to, but not bailing out.
I’m sweating.
I’m sore.
I take a day when my body tells me I need to.
But I also go hard. And yesterday I felt something. I wasn’t sure, so I explored further. Yeah. I confirmed it.
I found my triceps. They are still there. And they are getting stronger.
Oh yeah.
Calling all New Runners!!
Have you always wanted to try running? Perhaps you used to run but you have lost the habit and want to return to it? If this sounds like you and you would like to try running this summer - then this is for you!
John, aka fatmaninalittlesuit is going to be leading a 9 week session of Couch 2 5k. This program is specifically designed to help new runners get up from the couch to running a 5k. (See what they did there?)
We are starting June 3rd and running into August (Exact dates may vary depending on how you decided to run with it and how many days / weeks you decide to repeat.)
The program has you running 3 days a week starting with short intervals and working up to 30 min nonstop. No sessions are longer than 40 minutes including warm-up and cool down. You are encouraged, but not required to do some basic cross training as well during this time - I will through out some suggestions and welcome others to do the same.
A few addition notes
You may want to find an app for your phone to help track intervals. I recommend the zenlabs c25k or c25k pro app because:
I used it in the past and love the interface
They have both free and paid versions
They have both Apple and Android versions
They have other 10k, ½ and full applications you can move to in the future if you find you like it
You are welcome to use any version of the program you like - there may be some minor differences but we can work with that. I also enjoy the zombies run version.
I will post weekly workouts and tips for new runners on Monday each week. The first one will be on June 3rd.
Please follow and post using the tag c25k 2019 this will make it easy to find relevant posts.
Feel free and use the 10k or half program if you would like - just modify them as appropriate. They start off very similar to C25k in many cases.
I plan on making post about this on my podcast as well - so please consider subscribing when it goes live shortly.
Reblog this to help raise viability
If you are in - let me know when you reblog this post.
GO!
S Q U A D
I think I’m in denial about my weight. I see the number on the scale is just about at 200 and I see myself in pictures and am horrified. But then I see myself in a mirror and think okay I’m not too big and I don’t feel too big usually. But I am and for some reason my brain can’t accept or see that.
So you feel like you should dislike what you see, but you don’t? Baby, that’s the opposite of a problem! Society and impossible beauty standards push us to be critical and dislike our bodies no matter what size we are. If you don’t look in the mirror and hate what you see, you’re doing well!
If you think you would be healthier and feel better about how you look in pictures after losing a few pounds, then why can’t that be enough of a reason to start changing how you eat and increasing your activity level? You don’t have to hate what you see in the mirror in order to make those changes - making healthy changes shouldn’t stem from self-hatred in the first place! Keep loving yourself. Keep being okay with what you see in the mirror. Embrace it. You can love yourself where you’re at while still wanting to work on making some changes.
remember to be kind to yourself and drink lots of water today
Day done whole 30
So...not too bad. Overall, I'd say, not too bad. I wasn't cray cray vigilant, but I'm okay with that. They say repeatedly that it's night w weight loss diet, but a reset; a way of finding out what is good for you and what isn't. Well, I already KNOW those things because I did an elimination diet a few years back. So, I know wheat and dairy aren't....all that great for me. That said, I basically did this for the weight loss, and the resetting of some cravings and bad habits. Which means, there were a few cheat days in there. And my habits did change. I don't go weak in the knees when I pass the bread and cheese sections in the grocery store. I've been "allowed" to have pizza for three days now, and I still haven't caved. I'm loving the Nutpods latte (although I generally drink black coffee, so it's a treat instead of a substitution). And seriously--I'm just not wanting to drink. I'm a wine and whiskey girl, so this is a big reset for me. Oh, I've stuck with yoga every single day (34 days in a row!) plus--even with a bum leg flare up and starting PT again to strengthen my glutes and leg muscles, I'm on week 4 of a Nike Training Club program, without missing a work it! So--results? Down 7.4 pounds, 5 inches, and 1.2 on the BMI as well. I'm pretty happy with this. And the yoga is making me feel so damn strong! The challenge will be to keep these habits going, so I can keep losing (because there's another 45 pounds or so to go!) and to actually up the cardio from three times a week to 5 or more. Especially if I do phase in, well, pizza.
Day 15
So these past few days have been hard! There was heat! And it's hard not to get frustrated with where I am. There are things I can do, things I'm getting better at, things I'm learning how to do and some things I feel I may never be able to do (my heels may never meet the floor in down dog). But also--every day! It's amazing. I'm sore, but it's just awesome.
Sometimes pictures say a whole lot with no caption whatsoever. This is one.
Fuck

Whole 30 day 6
Yeah--NOT day 7. Yesterday, I was so muddleheaded I actually thought o was on Day 6, but alas, it was just day 5. It HAS been 7 days of yoga (I just love Yoga with Adriene so so much!) and it HAS been 7 days no cheese or alcohol (and can I just say--that's the hardest but, honestly. I'm in the bargaining stage of grief right now. Yes, grief for my wine. Grief for my whiskey. It's snowing, for sugar's sake! It's whiskey time! Hot toddy, Manhattan, oh--I digress). Day 6--spinach, egg and avocado scramble and shepherd's pie for lunch. De-lish. The food bit isn't killing me. It's that I'm watching football (go Seahawks!) in front of a fire, and I'm not drinking bubbles. Or wine. Or whiskey. Sigh. Sticking with it.
Day 7! She wanted to join in. I think it was fitting. She is a big part of my (emotional) stability!
Whole 30 - Day 3
@serenity-made-visible @healthyrose17 @sexyby30
Hi ladies!! Checking in on our Whole 30 Journey!
I live in NC, and they are calling for 6-12" of snow to hit us tomorrow and Saturday. We didn’t leave work til about 6:30 and had to brave the grocery store. So we skipped the gym today, but will be going tomorrow after work before the snow gets too crazy.
My day wasn’t bad, but I made a small whole 30 compliance error. It’s okay, I’ll be 100% again tomorrow.
I had bacon and eggs for breakfast.
I got so caught up with work that I ended up only eating a handful of compliant sweet potato chips for lunch.
By dinner time, I was starving. My plan was to make turkey tacos and eat them in a lettuce wrap. But i was so hungry that the lettuce just wasn’t going to cut it….. so I ate a tortilla.
Like I said, I don’t feel guilty about it. I’m owning up to it, and I’ll get back to 100% tomorrow… followed by a snow day workout! ☃️❄️
How are you all doing?? How was your day?
Nice work! I'm on day 6 and I don't know--I didn't get the KATT stage they said would come but today--oh my head! And so so tired. No way I'm getting my run in--and the yoga (I'm doing Yoga Revolution with Adriene) might be a (ahem) stretch too!
I feel like I'm eating SO much--and it is a ton of cooking! Keep up the good work!

Here's my downward dog this morning!
Day 4
I dunno. I'm not cranky or really struggling. But I really DO want a glass of wine. (Not now! It's 5 am, but after work. And I know Friday will be a battle of wills!). But as far as food....sheesh, I'm doing okay. I even really liked the chicken breast I made last night. Normally, I'm not a huge fan of chicken. You know what's making me cranky? The fact my French press was broken and all my coffee leaked out all over the counter this morning. So...that's not great. But lunch is packed (chicken and asparagus, and an apple for a snack) and I'm fixin' to do Day 5 of Yoga Revolution. I'd say this--I'm sore from the yoga and the running (yup--made it to the gym last night!). And yeah, I'd really like to have some pizza or a super nice Manhattan, but overall, if I stay busy and drink tea in the evenings, I'm doing okay. And...I mean, it's okay if nobody reads this, but I'm posting it for me. It's my accountability.
Day 3!
Okay--so it's actually 4 days of yoga and no wine (eek!) and 3 days on whole30 (which means I only have 27 days to go!). So far, I feel like I'm eating a lot and not cranky--but it's a lot of cooking! The hardest part is getting my butt to the gym right now! I have a run scheduled that I put off last night so I better get moving!
