I had a great workout tonight! Everything went perfectly it felt like and the amazing thing is that I can already feel my endurance increasing even just after week 1! I also noticed I had to make my route a little longer, both because I think overall I'm going faster than last week and also because I'm running for longer now. The only complaint was the last interval of running ended up being uphill, which was awful, but I got through it!
Today, being Wednesday, I weighed in ... and was 172.8. That is up .8 pounds from last week, but I expected it with the abnormal over eating that I did this past weekend with the State Fair, Olive Garden, and my stepmom's birthday. I actually was surprised I didn't gain more.
Also weight-loss related (sort of), I am going off of my birth control starting yesterday in preparation for pregnancy. I was told I should have a few normal periods before trying, so I am off them now. I know a lot of people say when you go on birth control you gain or lose up to 5 pounds. I don't know if that is true because when I went on I wasn't weighing myself, so I guess we will see!
I decided to do something a little fun when I update on my workouts. I'm going to share my playlist of the workout with you all. I put my whole song list in iTunes on shuffle when I run, and if I don't like the song for running, I fast forward it. So I thought I'd share the ones I like so you can see what kind of motivates me during my work outs! Here was my playlist for tonight!
