March 5th update

January - I really did nothing different this whole month.  I ran with my training group but ate the same and didn't add any strength training.  Not surprisingly I ended the month pretty much where I started.

February
During the first week of February I found this website I started reading about sugar and people who have cut it out of their diet. I was intrigued. Especially when I heard about the changes people saw in their moods, energy level and focus. So I figured I would give it a shot.

It was surprisingly easy to do. I have very few cravings and the few times I indulged it immediately resulted in a headache and extreme bitchiness. So I kept at it with little to no thought.

Even though I was still only running 3 times a week with my clinic I managed to lose 9 pounds by the end of the month. YAY!!!

March
My plans for March are to take it one step further. I've committed to doing Jillian Michael's 30 day shred every day in March. I'm also tracking my calories in and burned to try and find a balance of losing weight and staying fueled for my workout. I would love to see 5 pounds gone by the end of the month.
