Day 128 - May 8, 2010

A few months back, a few friends and I started a group to help motivate each other to lose weight, eat healthy, and exercise. Today, was the culmination of months of hard work - our first team 5k! We ran the CT Race in the Park to benefit Breast Cancer research. The weather unfortunately was rainy and cold. Thankfully though, the rain held off while we ran our race, and only started after we were done. It was a great feeling to finish, and I'm definitely proud of my teammates for working hard and finishing strong! We're not done yet though, and we're planning our next race for next month! Looking forward to it :)

Until Tomorrow,

Day 89 - March 30, 2010

So like almost every other person with a New Year's resolution, mine was to be much more healthy in 2010. In years past, I've been less than stellar about keeping my resolution, but this year has been very different. So much so that I've even taken to drinking these bland tasting low sodium V8 juices. I'm not a fan of V8 at all, so I figured if I'm gonna drink the stuff, I might as well drink the stuff not loaded with salt. Eric thinks the low sodium kind is gross, but loves the regular V8 (with all the salt). Either way, it's two servings of vegetables right off the bat. Not too shabby for something that takes less than 2 minutes to drink! I think I gotta head out to Sam's Club tomorrow to get more...

Until Tomorrow,

Athina
