I actually made it to the gym for the 6 am step class and afterward, swam 5 laps.  I learned that it take 35 laps to swim a mile in my gym&#8217;s pool so 5 laps is what, barely 1\/8 mile, but still&#8230;I did it. Surprisingly, this got me to over 6,000 steps by 7:30 am.  Sweet!  <\/p>\n<p>Then,I went and got a new tattoo.  This is the tattoo I have had planned for many many years.  It&#8217;s pretty, but it turned out way bigger than I wanted\/expected and I can&#8217;t swim for 2 weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, on the food front, yesterday was not so awesome.  I ate 2 meals and both were out at restaurants.  Felt gross all night through this morning.  My NS shipment should be here tomorrow and I am pretty stoked.  The next 2 months will be tough because I LOVE to eat out and I probably eat lunch out 3 or 4 times a week.  <\/p>\n<p>I know I can do this, and if I do, then both my body and my wallet will be happier.<\/p>\n<p>Today, I did week 1, day 1 of a couch to 5K program.  What is couch 2 5K program you might ask? It&#8217;s a program to take  you from being a non-runner to running a 5K.  You can find a lot of information about 5K training on the internet these days.  I do not like to run. I do not think I want to run a 5K.  But, I do want a runners body.<\/p>\n<p>Check out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.c25k.com\">Couch to 5K<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.coolrunning.com\/engine\/2\/2_3\/\">Cool Running<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday was pretty awesome.
