Day 60 - The Struggle Continues

Well, my pants size has not changed a bit in the past 60 days, but my eating habits have not been on par everyday either.  I was exercising and dieting sporadically.  I guess that is not the most effective method.  OKAY.  That being said...I have about 60 more days until summer starts creeping up on me...I think my challenge for the next 30 days is to exercise everyday during the work week as follows:

MON - 30 mins jogging
TUES - Spartacus
WED - 30 mins jogging
THURS - Spartacus
FRI - 30 mins jogging

This is what I did last week minus the Friday jog since we drove home for the weekend.  Jamie found a jogging program that sounds a little more my speed than the Couch to 5k.  I'll post it below:

Week 1: Run 2 min, walk 3 min; repeat 6 times

Week 2: Run 3 min, walk 3 min; repeat 5 times
Week 3: Run 5 min, walk 2 min; repeat 4 times
Week 4: Run 7 min, walk 3 min; repeat 3 times
Week 5: Run 8 min, walk 2 min; repeat 3 times
Week 6: Run 9 min, walk 1 min; repeat 3 times
Week 7: Run 30 minutes

I'd be amazed if I made it to jogging for 30 minutes straight by May ... but I'm going to try ...

Food has been a huge stumbling block for me once again.  I do fairly well during the week, but I tend to go buck wild from Friday night to Sunday night.  I need to get this under control again.  I've gone back to logging my food on LIVESTRONG because the handwritten thing was too easy to forget.  And it is way easier to track calories on the website.  We're going to the grocery store tonight, so I'm going to try to come up with some new ideas for breakfast and such.  I feel like I'm starting all over again...but I'm not...I'm just taking it to the next level.
