I took a break from this blog due to a busy schedule and some traveling, but I am determined and back with more enthusiasm. I have gained 4 lbs in the past month as I have not been working out and I also think it has to do with the weaning off breastfeeding my 15 month old baby. Nursing helps us burn up to 500 calories a day and I owe a big part of my weightloss to breastfeeding for this long, but I thought it was time to wean him off this past month and I did. Now I need to watch my nutrients intake even more than before and I think that is why I gained the 4 to 6 lbs in 4 weeks.
Coincidently, a friend invited me to join a relay half marathon in October 23, my part is 4 miles. I began training yesterday for this run, I ran 2.2 miles on my first training day. I did it in 40 minutes which I think it was horrible lol, but at least I ran it lol. This week I will train every other day for 2.5 miles and add .5 mile next week until the day of the run. Wish me Luck!
I love to run, I am just not a fast runner
