I'm on cloud 9
I worked out and am so completely enthralled and happy with my workout. I did 80 minutes on a treadmill, alternating between running and walking. I ran at different intervals--from 5 mph to 5.5 mph to 6 mph and up to 6.5 mph, then walked on an incline at 3.8 mph. I burned 725 calories and feel so happy. I have only taken in 60 calories so far today (from yogurt). Finally, I feel successful. When the workout got hard--which was a large portion of it--I just turned up my music and mentally repeated the words "be thinner" and "leaner, stronger, thinner" to myself. It really worked to focus me and keep me going. I feel great. I am not going to eat until later tonight. My hubby and I are going out with a few other couples. So I'll go to dinner and eat something very light--like a salad.. then we are going out dancing... so I'll burn even more calories. I might even try talking my hubby into a walk right now to a park near our apartment. It would burn another 100 or so calories...
