I'm a week and a half into my 6 week plan. I've been doing well with the running part, not so well with the weights part. I used to love lifting weights, but that was when I had more free time. Now I know I should just go back to Body Pump becuase I think that will be the best way for me to get strong again. Just not looking forward to the sore part.... Plus, I don't want being sore to interfere with the running part, so I need to work something out that will allow me to do both.
Right now I am doing a variation of the Special K diet. I tried some protein water mix at Karrie's last Sunday and enjoyed it a lot. Of course, now I can't find it anywhere here, they only had the tea flavor at HyVee and the Bakers I stopped at didn't have any Special K protein stuff. Yesterday I ate one of the meal bars for lunch and had a bar for a morning snack. I had the 100 calorie popcorn for an afternoon snack and then a really big salad for dinner. I don't know if I'll be able to do that everyday, but I hope to just get back in the habit of really being aware of what I'm putting in my mouth.
Right now we don't have a lot of plans for the weekend, other than the usual (class, groceries...) so I think it will be a good food weekend and I might try Pump on Sunday morning after my scheduled run/walk.

About Me

- I lost around 80 pounds doing Weight Watchers and have kept it off for two years. Losing the weight was easy, maintaining the weight loss is much harder! I got out of the habit of running 20 miles a week and I am now trying to get back to those old, healthier habits!

I say make yourself go to Pump but go REALLY light. Especially on the legs. You'll be able to build up again really fast, but you won't have to go through that "I can't even sit down to pee" feeling. You probably don't care as much if you arms are sore. I'd do something like a medium for squats and build up each week. And your legs are already getting a good workout each time you run. You just want to be able to see your shapely biceps again each time you flex in front of the mirror!!!
And I will keep an eye out for those Special K waters. I did buy them serveral months ago, so maybe they don't sell them anymore. But I'll look around.
I found them at HyVee!
