Workout
After 3 weeks of doing my program.. I fell off the wagon. Well, it was you know THAT week and so I went 10 days without working out. I was slapping my wrist for such bad behaviour - but you know what, the rest was good.
Today i went out, got a good stretch, set two timers, my watch to tell me how long the whole workout was (25.5 minutes) and the IPOD to tell me my laps. I started walking my brisk walk to get my heart rate up, and when I started my first run - it was so good, no aching, I felt strong and able to take good strides, full of energy, heart and lungs working well.... Here's the workout I did

I then did another stretching cool down, shower and then joined the family for prayer.
All of the runs were energetic and I felt strong. I ran hard... only taking it easy on the last 2 minute run. I haven't had a workout like this before, I guess this is the beginning of feeling fit and getting healthier. I don't think I've lost pounds, but I have noticed my stomach doesn't stick out as far, I think my muscles are getting stronger. I think I'll do another week and then take new photos- to compare with those I took at the beginning of the workouts.
I've also been eating more raw vegetables, and other salads/veggies. I'm trying to make an effort to eat more veggies and fruits as a greater proportion of my diet.
However, I slacked off on the drinking of water and I noticed the negative effects on my milk supply. We had to get a different source of water to drink, and so the bottles weren't there to be taken as I needed. We've gone back to the old source, and my water consumption is back up.
