Vegetarian Update

Well, last week I told you I would update on Friday with the vegetarian recipes I made.  Sadly, I only made two of the recipes.

I'm sticking to being a vegetarian for May.  It's a fun challenge!  What I'm finding is this:  I buy too much food, and a lot of it goes to waste.

I am desperately trying to get back to how I was eating about a month and a half ago... to no avail.  I refuse to step on the scale and see the weight that I worked hard to take off only to be back on because I can't control myself when it comes to food.  So I am a little disappointed in myself.

I know that I am the only one who can make that change, but I am finding it so difficult to do.  What helped me before was using Weight Watchers Online... so I'm wondering if I should get back into using WW again.

I also have not been running as much as I used to.  As soon as I was laid off, I took a run... and then stopped.  I've pushed myself to run once a week.  This is not good because I have a 5K coming up in July.  However, I bought "Runner's World" which has practical advice for running your first 5K.  They even have a training schedule listed.  I have about 10 weeks until my 5K, which allows to to use that training schedule twice.

So, this post is more or less written to keep myself accountable.  Number 2: Loose 25 pounds by my 25 birthday.  I am going to do it because I said I would.

I have the power to make a change in my lifestyle, and I've done it before.  So, because I said I would, I am doing it again!

Here goes nothing!
