Still in Week One, but moving on

Since I haven't been to the gym in a week and I've self-medicated using high sugar, high fat, and high starch items (alcohol included) during that week I expected my return to the treadmill to be miserable. It was great!

I barely felt winded, and I even increased my speed slightly. I started this program walking at 3.3 mph and running at 4.4. I have slowly increased my walk to 3.5 and run to 4.4-4.6, depending on my heart rate after my rest period.

So tomorrow or Friday I will start Week two.

Foodwise today was another bad day. In fact I'm currently in the middle of a battle with the bag of delicious chocolate covered coffee beans that are sitting on the desk. They're amazing - covered in a dusting of cocoa powder. YUM. I'm in so much trouble with the caffeine police and chocolate guard.
