Day 18...72 days to go!

Since we only have an hour for lunch...we condensed the Yoga video down today to right at an hour. We skipped some of the more advanced poses...but getting in a solid hour of Yoga is pretty good.

I took Ian to daycare this morning...so Jason is going to pick him up. So, right after work, I am heading to Peak to get my running in for my triathlon training. I am planning to run for about 30 mins. The training plan we are going by has us running 20 mins. for the first run...however...we have been running 30+ mins already in preparation for our 5K's. So, I'm going to shoot for around 30. My goal is to run the 5K piece of the triathlon continuously, with a good pace while continuing to shave off a few mins of my time.

One thing I have noticed during all of this is that I am constantly hungry...but I am constantly eating. Like today, for breakfast I had a boiled egg, bacon, low-fat strawberry yogurt. For a snack I had one of the South Beach Diet Protein cereal bars (10g of protein)...which by the way was very good! I just finished lunch...I had flounder, beans, and a broccoli/carrot/cauliflower mix. But I am still hungry! So, I ate string cheese. For my afternoon snack, I brought carrot sticks...which I will eat while drinking my protein drink. So, I'm still sticking to the diet for the most part. We do allow ouselves a weekly cheat...like Sunday I had some of Ian's chocolate birthday cake. YUM!

So, we're still doing well...almost done with week 3!!! Next week is our recovery week! Yahoo!
