Transition Week and Cooking Light

Last night was great! Reason being, I ran a half mile and walked another two and a half miles after that. That brought me to an hour of treadmill time, an episode of Breaking Bad in the bag and 3 miles done last night!

My husband and I recently jumped on the Breaking Bad bandwagon. The first season seems very slow going, so it’s a good series for me to watch on the treadmill. Any other Breaking Bad fans out there?

Yesterday, I spent some time over lunch looking through the new edition of Cooking Light Magazine. I tabbed quite a few recipes that I’d like to try.  I even took a couple pictures to share with you guys!

My workouts haven’t been going according to plan this week, and that’s okay. It’s my transition week from being couch bound with illness and getting back into the swing of things. Here’s what I was scheduled to do, and what I’ve done so far:

Exercise plan for the week:

S – Walk (Ran intervals for 1 mile, then walked)
M – Yoga (did not do)
T – Walk (did not do)
W – Yoga (Ran ½ mile then walked 2 ½ miles)

As for my overall goals for October, here’s the update on that:

October's Goals:

Reach 225 lbs. (229.4 currently)

Alternate running - hills, speed, distance (not going as plan this month)

Try a new recipe (this will happen)

Post meal/exercise plans weekly (I’ve been doing good with this!)

How are you doing with your October goals?
