Time to Start Bugging Out!!

It's Here!  My BodyBugg has arrived.  Like a stork bringing me a new baby, I anticipated the arrival...and it finally came - not without drama...thanks UPS...but I finally had it in my hands at 8pm last night.

I felt like a kid opening the box.  It's been such a long time since I've received something I've truly wanted... a thing that has been on my wish list for many months - and I now have it.

Immediately, I went to my computer and set up my account and plugged my Bugg in to charge.  I wanted to be ready to place it on my arm first thing this morning - and that's exactly what  I did.  I tracked my first meal on my food log, I synced my Bugg to my iPhone to get my first read out of the day.....and I fell more in love with it.  Seeing the numbers before my eyes: my steps taken and the calories burned in the 30 minutes since putting it on made me realize that it was all worth it.  Knowing and not guessing.

I now have this "let's see what it can do" attitude.  I want to see how well I can do, it's challenging me to really increase the numbers....I want a good deficit at the end of today.

So, I'm heading off to the gym in a little while.  I'm going to sweat, I'm going to push, I'm going to see what kind of numbers I can pull.  Who knows, I might even decide to go for a jog later this afternoon - get out in this nice weather...we'll see.

Tomorrow, I'm definitely going for a run.  I have to figure out how to get back to my C25K training and incorporate it in with my gym.  It's weird, but I just can't do it on a treadmill.  The treadmill is a struggle for me...I still haven't figured out how to change the settings and customize my speeds to make me comfortable.  Plus, running on a treadmill holds no torch to being able to run in the fresh air.  I have had nice weather all week, and I've been in the gym.  Not that I'm complaining - but I want to find a way to equal out both...especially with spring on my doorstep.

OK, time to get moving.  I've been sitting at this desk long enough - and I still have to make my meal plan for next week. 

Everyone enjoy your Saturday!!

Till next time. ;)
