100 Days Update, and W.O.W.


It's been 50 days since I started my 100 Day Challenge. At the end of February, I challenged myself to eat healthy and train for a 10k trail run for the Next 100 Days. I wish I could say I have been so far successful.
Exercise is not a problem- I love to do it. It's sweets that seem to be my nemesis. Since our sugar strike only a couple of weeks ago, I have made a new resolve to make more salubrious* choices in my eating. I don't keep junk in the house, but I consider too many occasions to be "special". Usually, those "special occasions" involve less-than-healthy refreshments, of which I rarely decline.

With the next 50 days, I am going to recommit and do my utmost to eat well and train for the 10k. I haven't made it easy on myself, however. In the coming weeks, I will be traveling A LOT. I will be without the safeguards of my own home, leaving myself vulnerable to the cuisine of the chosen locale. I will not completely deprive myself, mind you, but I will practice more self-control and make wise choices that won't leave me feeling like I need to be pardoned.

*salubrious \suh-loo-bree-uhs\ adj,
favorable to or promoting health; healthful.
