Thanks for all the love and support regarding my first run. I actually have 2 runs under my belt. Sunday night and Monday night. Unfortunately, I couldn't do it on Tuesday...but I have 2 planned for today. One in the morning when I get off work and one when Charles gets home.
The running is not to bad. It's the breathing technique that is kicking my butt. I think once I get the breathing under control I will be better prepared to handle longer runs. We are not rushing it though. We are taking our time.
On the band front. I created a meal plan. Yup...I even printed out a chart. It's going pretty well. Of course their has been some off plan snacking. But I'm writing it down and being accountable. Which is a big deal for me. The fun thing is I have created protein snacks. Or at least the handout I received has some on their. My favorite has been the 1 oz. of mixed nuts. Yummy. I have made breakfast 2 days in a row. Which means I had to get off my butt early. So not cool.
Charles is home!!! Yippie. I know I was supposed to jump his bones and catch up on 2 months of sex. But I was tired. Hell yeah. I literally slept on and off for 3 straight days. It was great!!! I feel rejuvenated. The kids are happy they have their dad back. They keep saying..."no leave no more daddy." I guess being stuck with mommy for 2 months was too much for their little brains. LOL
I'm totally okay with him not leaving again. I on the other hand should be allowed to leave.
So about the title. It's the title to a song I was listening to when I decided to start this blog....no relevance at all. LOL
I hope everyone is having a great work week. The weekend is almost here. I will be home sleeping most of the day. I'm at work now. Working the 12-8 am shift. Blah. So not a good environment for proper eating..but I'm trying. Getting ready to have a some tuna.
P.S. Dance today ladies...just because.

YAY! your husband is back! I hope you get to relax a tiny bit!
I am mega proud of your running!!
So happy hubby is home! I'll dance when I get my lungs back! Keep up the running and good for you on the meal plan.
Yay! Once you get the breathing right ~ the running will be so much easier. I used to panic when I got breathless and think that I would die and then have to walk. Its all in the breath! Love the title of this post ~ one of my fav songs!
Happy your man is back!
Whoo Hooo on the running!! So, sooo proud of YOU!!! And a double Whoo Hooo that Hubby is home!!
Your husband is back and your title was just a coincidence... I think not :-)
love that song!! lol now you've got it stuck in my head! =D
Yep...the breathing's tough. So glad your hubby's home. I have a hard enough time when mine leaves for a week...I can't imagine 2 months!
You are running and I am so proud of you for that! I am also glad your hubby is back home!
Keep it up you will be a skinny babe in no time!
Haha, I love that song! Getchu some tonight!!
(Also, you're already a skinny babe.)
Awesome on the running -- major props to you!! And, that's great about Charles being back!!
yay for you running! There are lots of good sites out there with techniques for managing your breating... it always seems like it takes me about a mile of concentrating on it really hard before I settle in. Once my breathing is under control I feel like I can run forever! Well, maybe not forever, but 3 miles is a breeze :)
I would suggest a slower start to the running. Maybe go every other or every 3rd day to give your body time to recover. You don't want to injure yourself! And if you're breathing is out of control then you're probably running too fast. Slow down, take walk breaks!!
Welcome home, Charles. Now get to jumping his bones. ;)
Good for you for creating the meal plan and running! I need to try and start running, I'm just chicken.
