Cathe Friedrich Forums

I agreed to run a half marathon with my husband in the fall. I have been looking at running plans and time lines for a 10 days now and will start tomorrow. We just got off a trip today and I'm bloated and know I've gained a few pounds.

I plan to make running my main staple now and add Cathe's workouts as crosstrainers and weight work.

Weight is still 176.5. I've decided to start counting calories. I wish I could join or start a checking, but they always end up being social sites. I dont like that. I need motivation, not chit-chat. So, I'll just do it here.

here's the plan for today: No more than 1600 calories
B. Large Protein bar - 360
S. 1/2 fiber bar, yogurt, a few peanuts - 230
L. Salad, chicken breast, pinapples - 335
S. T7, 1/2 protein bar - 330
D. turkey, cheese...

A sprained knee brought me to the doctor and now at 46 I am looking at knee replacement surgery within the next few years. I just had surgery to clean out the arthritis so I have not been able to work out for the past month. To put off the surgery as long as I can, I need to totally change my workouts for both cardio and...

weight is up to 176.5 cause I overate junk yesterday. I feel crappy right now. woke up feeling crappy and didnt workout which aides to my crappy feeling. I'm stressed. that's the problem. I've been praying and meditating and its affecting me in a bad way. Just knowing what the problem is helps me out so much.

I will read and meditate tonight, get some filing done at home and get to bed on time. This alone will help me feel better and get some bloat off of me.
