Ah, week 3 :) I'm very pumped for this week because the 5K training seems a little more difficult. Or at least it did, until I did my first workout this morning. It actually wasn't too bad. Week 3's workout consists of:
Brisk Warm-up Walk ~ 5 minutes
Then 2 of these intervals:
1 1/2 minute run
1 1/2 minute walk
3 minute run
3 minute walk
Surprisingly, I was very able to do the 3 minute stretches. It wasn't easy but it wasn't super difficult at the same time! Afterwards, I went in the weight room (that scares me) and did a couple upper body exercises. Then I got my butt out of there fast! Seriously, I have a big fear of the weight room, not too sure why. I wasn't afraid when I was personal training with Pam, but that's because I had my own bodyguard lol.
I had a little lapse on Saturday in terms of my diet. I ate a little bit more of my dinner than I should have, but I was staaaaaaaaaaarving! I also was craving something sweet. So I bought a bag of those little Dove chocolate hearts. They make a great treat if you want to indulge but not use up tons of calories. There are only 230 calories in 6 pieces! Now, I won't eat 6...but eating 2 makes my craving go away and then I don't binge out on cookies, ice cream, and candies! I think it's important not to ignore cravings because if you do, it only makes it worse and then you end up having a really bad day in terms of eating!
