I woke up this morning and decided to go for a run outside rather than walk to the gym. I was sore from yesterday but managed to get really into it, I think I ran about 4k, I didnt eat before I left because I wasnt hungry yet, but after an hour and half of running I was starving, came home and ate a bagel with creme cheese.

This fitness blog is a reminder to me that getting myself in shape is a process, it wont happen over night. My goal by the end of this is to devote time each day to physical activity, develop leaner muscle, eat healthier and lose weight in the healthiest way possible.

First of all, my starting weight- 128 pounds, my goal weight by September 20th- 118 pounds.

Today I thought I would start off easy, just a light cardio workout followed by stretching. In this workout I did some stairs, some abdominal excersises and then a short jog which at the end, I continued to do keep my heart rate up by jumping jacks, burpees and some lunges. These excersises weren't for long periods of time, about 2 minutes each 5 times around. It felt good to get my heart rate up and sweat!

Today's nutrition:
Breakfast- coffee & ginger snap
Lunch- Pita with chicken, cucumber, lettuce, tomatoes, black olives & iced tea
Dinner- pork chops, rice, salad
