I am starting anew. I am loving this! Today I got a free lunch because a visiting Prof. was in. Went to a steakhouse downtown (expensive). We get a cap on our amts and usually I get the most expensive. This time I opted for getting the healthiest. As everyone around me got the Big Red Burger (go figure!), the Cali Burger, some other random burger and a Caesar salad (not as good as one might expect)... I opted for the grilled chicken, steamed vegetables and rice. :) I also have had an apple, a banana, a South Beach LIVING wrap thingee, and rice krispie treats (thanks to Bud1 and his Sam's club present he bought me!). Don't worry, only one a day ;) I am about to go to the rec and I meet with my trainer FINALLY on Wednesday!! I was talking to my friend yesterday and she said I never knew how it was when you said you were TOO busy for working out. She said she thought it was a cop out, but now she finally has seen the light. She's a personal trainer (not mine), a fitness queen, really, and she's seeing my point of view. I am going to try. But I have to try really hard with that and with research. AND I have been soooo tired lately. Hopefully this will clear that up!!!!!!!!! So people, please, I need motivation. I can't run the half, which is sad, but I am getting back to things cuz I am feeling better (most of the time) and NEED to do this. Thanks Ali Vincent for being a huge role model and motivation. Hello, people, she's a stud!!
