HELLOOOOOOOO!

Am I the only one here? Oh well, I guess I'll have to go it alone.

I didn't complete the whole 8 miles which was disappointing, because I hurt my foot. I believe it is a pulled muscle and I like Tia suggestion that it was related to the fact that we were running on an uneven surface. So I am going to rest my foot for the next two weeks and see if I can't come back strong on 9/6/08. I won't be running or doing elliptical, just biking and I'll probably do a little weight lifting.

Also, I failed to reach 5000 calories in 5 days although I did get 4518 in 4 days which was pretty good. I am going to try again this week although my hurt foot will make it a little more difficult.

I snacked so hard this weekend that I actually gained 1.5 lbs. I am a bit discouraged, but I am in a good place mentally so I can bounce back. Weekends have been notoriously bad where my eating habits are concerned so I think this is a wake up call so to speak. Letting me know I need to get a grip on how I eat on the weekends.
