Still Chugging Along & Running a Bit Too!

Well... I sucked out on the ol' 21 Day Sugar Detox this time around.  I am terrible with food. I'm a food addict & a compulsive overeater...It's been a lifelong battle.  I've just recently joined Overeaters Anonymous (not very anonymous when I announce it to the world, but hey :) )  & so far it's been very beneficial.  I've done MILES better with eating properly & my focus on my goals has improved drastically.  I feel like it was the missing link.  Before, I'd do really well for a little while & then have a freak out, feel guilty & get derailed.  Now I feel more confident in my eating choices & have stuck to my eating plan without feeling extreme temptations.

And the good news is...it's been showing on the scales & in my appearance.  I've been working out quite a bit so I know that's helped as well.  Here's my current schedule. M-W-F is spent at the gym & week by week I alternate strength training with a full body TRX routine. T-T-S is running (well, let's be honest, walking/jogging - I'm doing the couch to 5K) with Saturday being my big run...at least 6K.  AND...this Friday I'm going to V02max to take my first session of CrossFit Fundamentals...so I'm pretty excited about that :)

So all in all things are going well...Just need to sweat it out & keep going!

p.s. Any suggestions for songs to add to a new playlist???
