Staying Strong

After yesterday's trail run of 2 miles I am ready to up it a mile.  Today I plan on running/jogging/walking 3 miles.  My goal is to complete the 3 miles in 30 minutes. It will probably take a little longer as I am pretty sore today, but there is nothing wrong with a goal.  Besides exercising I find it important to track what you consume, the site I use it myfitnesspal.com and anyone who is trying to lose weight should use this free site.  It's truly amazing, I even have the application on my phone which allows me to scan foods for its nutrients.  Along with tracking my food I am making sure that my fat stays low like the program recommends, basically I am trying not to go over sodium, fat, calories, protein....you get the point. So to make sure that I stay below I plan my food out the night before and enter it into the website to make sure that I am on track. I am also starting to bring salads for lunch instead of a lean cuisine, A. it saves money and B. I don't have to worry about "mystery" ingredients because everything is fresh and organic. Yay for eating healthy! :)
