I'm in week three of my training and I missed my run yesterday. I don't have a real good excuse...I just didn't get it in. Making it up tonight.
It's going to mess things up a little though since I'm suppose to run on Thursdays too. And I'm technically suppose to rest between runs. But they're my short runs, 30 minutes, so I think I can do back to back and be fine...and Sunday, my long run, is not that long - it's only 2.5 miles. And since I ran FIVE MILES (yep, still pumped) last Sunday I think I can handle that one okay.
I messed up on my diet drinks too. It kills me to have to confess that but accountability and honesty go hand in hand so you get the ugly truth. I actually have messed up more than once. BIG sad face for me. I couldn't even last a whole week!
Although I will say the first one was not really my fault, really. My hubby ordered one for me and I rationalized that I didn't want to waste it. And then I rationalized that it was just one and what would one hurt?
See, see how that works? It's very obviously called lack of willpower.
And then again today I cheated. I have no rationalization for that except to say I am stressed to the max. Really, just very, very stressed. And it's good that I don't get stressed too often because I do not handle it well.
So after my visit to the orthodontist (to bend a wire that I'm pretty sure should have been bent when they put them on but obviously wasn't since it's been scraping the inside of my mouth since Monday but I just thought it was normal getting used to braces pain and thought I could tough it out until today when my mouth was so raw it hurt to smile and I smile a lot so that was kinda a problem) I caved to the temptation of Sonic happy hour.
I'm going to get back up on and hop on the wagon tomorrow and try it again. If I can avoid Sonic from now until forever I may have better luck...

You can do it! :) I have faith in you. Hoping that your stress level goes down soon!
You are doing great! We all stumble at times. We even fall down completely. But true character is demonstrated by getting up, dusting off, and moving on. You can do it!
Thanks girls - you guys are so encouraging! And I DID get my run in so I wasn't all that bad after all... :)
