Into week 4

Well, this is the second day of week 4 and to be honest I have no time! No time to blog, no time to even eat... I've been very very bad :(

However I have hit a new Milestone: I started running 2 miles a day (started Monday, so I'm 4 miles in). My body is pretty sore and I'm honestly surprised I've been able to find the energy to run sprints on NO carbs. I guess my body has really gotten use to it. Southbeach was never really designed for cardio or excersice, but I'm trying to give my weightloss a kick in the pants.

Next Tuesday morning is my weigh in. I don't have headaches really anymore, and I pretty much don't go anywhere without some peanut butter. I haven't been eating or drinking H20 as much as I need to and I know I need to. Between school, work, running errands, trying to excersice, and sleep every once in awhile, eating has become a chore. Eating is essential to loosing weight. Any personal trainer will tell you the more you eat the more (and faster) you'll loose. As long as it's the right food... it keeps your metabolism going, which burns calories even while you're sitting.

My goal moving forward after my weigh in is to have an excellent weekend with family, and then jump into a high protein diet during the week with 5 day workouts and then allowing a cheat meal on the weekends. I know I still have a bit to go even after 4 weeks. I also got Insanity, so I may give that a shot.

The once concern I have regarding my weigh in is that it's just a number... it doesn't show how much I lost fat wise or muscle wise. I feel like I've lost a lot of muscle, which isn't helpful. And since muscle weighs more than fat, I'm worried the scale may say I lost a lot (which is cool for my mental confidence) even though I may not have lost it all in fat. So I'm working to gain that back and loose the fat with my new approach.
