Getting in shape!

So I don't have any new pics to show but I thought I would fill my readers in on my new year's resoluation. As is my norm, "Get in shape" is about how I start every year. Well this year it includes a pledge.

pfpchallenge.com

This is the "biggest loser" sponsored site. It dedicates a pound of food to the food bank for every pound that you lose for the next 5 months. I pledged them 16 pounds. I have already lost them 3. I am excited about being able to do something great for others while doing something good for myself!

My strategy is this:
Day 1: jog 2 miles and jump rope half. (half means 1 half of whatever I completed for the whole jump rope day the week before)
Day 2: jog 4+miles
Day 3: jump rope whole (usually around 1000-2000 skips)
Day 4: rest
And repeat!!!!!

My 4 mile days are anywhere from 4 to 4.75 miles and can even be jogging home or to work! Its strenuous and takes me a little less than an hour, and Padfoot is my jogging buddy. He is working on getting over his fear of cars since we spend most of our time on Fredericksburg!!!

I'm also struggling to eat well, often, lite and nothing after 6pm. That's the hardest part for me as I often don't get home until after 6pm and am famished! I will eat a cup of pudding, some fruit or fruit snacks and drink lots of water!!!

Wish me luck!
