GUYS. GUYS.

I just ran my first official 5k race in 35:41.

I can’t believe it. Last time I ran a 5k was last May or something and I kind of completely gave up on running after that. And now look where I am.

It was tough. It was warm. But I did it, and I pretty much ran the whole thing except for a few times towards the end when I just needed to catch my breath.

It’s just so cool to see how far I’ve come mentally and physically to get to this point.

“Diet and beauty culture thrive on guilt. Guilt over that delicious dessert. Guilt over that dress size. Guilt over those wrinkles. They teach you guilt and then they sell you the solution. Please, never feel guilty for existing. You are allowed to eat. You are allowed to take up space. You are allowed to age. You are allowed to exist in the body you have right now without spending all of your time, money and self worth to change it.”

Have to keep reminding myself of this!

Week 3

So I feel like overall I did really well with eating this week. I logged all my calories and didn’t go over my goal, which i’m super proud of, especially since we had friends over who all ate a delicious pie and mash and I made a separate dinner. I did have a lot of chocolate this week, but always within my calorie goals and I’m also on my period so it’s definitely needed. 

I went to the gym four times, and went for a long walk on the 5th day so feeling really good about that. 

I haven’t weighed myself for a while because of my period but i’m hoping to have lost some more as i’m starting to get a little discouraged not seeing that scale move even though I know I shouldn’t let it get to me.
