March Logging

I would like to start this post by saying, "Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!" His stories live on in the hearts of children and adults alike. I don't know a single person who doesn't enjoy a Seuss rhyme.

Now, on to other things. I'm really enjoying my new job. I still miss some of my old co-workers, but I don't dislike any of my new ones. They all seem to be good people. Also, it is a MUCH more laid back environment, so my stress level has dropped tremendously. I hope it continues to go well. I am very optimistic!

I did not accomplish my February goal of 20 Zumba workouts. I really didn't beat myself up over it. I had, as usual, a lot going on in my life and, yet again, working out went on the back burner. I did begin my March challenge of logging all food on MyFitnessPal yesterday and I am happy to report that I have continued to log even today! I have to say that logging all of my food again has caused me to be a little more accountable of what is going in my mouth and I have managed to stay under my calorie goal for the past two days. Perhaps this is the month that I will get back on track mentally and perhaps I will also lose some pounds along the way!

The 5K in Paradise is one week from today. I have run on the treadmill a couple of times and I have to say that I am REALLY out of shape and I am hoping and praying that I don't have a longer time than my last time on this course. I am hoping to get my act together soon because I want to repeat the half marathon again this August with proper training and hydration. I have to decide soon if I am up for it as registration has already begun and there are a limited number of spots open.
