I forgot to graph and blog last week, but I did weigh in. Lost a pound last week, and a pound this week. I know losing weight slowly is the best, but I wish I would have lost a few more pounds.
Weekends are the hardest for me. Dieting is hard, and running is harder when I'm at home. A couple of weekends ago I actually got up early, and drove to the gym to enjoy one of the biggest embarrassing moments of my life. The gym closest to my apartment is a little older. They have the same treadmills that the newer gym near my work has, but they are a few years older. I got on a treadmill, and started my couch to 5k training like normal. 5 minute warm up walk, and then starting my 60 seconds of running. The problem was with each step of my run the belt on the treadmill would come to a stop under my weight, and as I would lift off it would start up again causing me to slip forward and then back. I tried a couple other treadmills, but they all did the same thing. Embarrassed, even though I'm sure no one noticed or gave a damn, I quickly hit the locker room and left.
The slipping made me pull something in my back, and right below my shoulder blade really hurts. I've ran a few times since then, but I just seem to re-injury my back. This doesn't please me at all. It's not good for my weight loss plan, and I enjoy how I feel after I run. So, I'm going to not run over the weekend, and pick it back up on Monday.
With that said... Monday is going to SUCK!
