Nikki here!
Wanted to give an update on the progress. Jessie and I got our fat-asses off of the couch yesterday and ran 3 miles. Jessie is a runner. She has always been a runner. I am a biker, I love to bike. She coerced me to try running with her yesterday. Although I was a bit intimidated by this, I still did it.
Jessie ran the entire 3 miles. I probably ran about 1.5 miles out of it. I would run, then walk a block or two, then run again. I was so surprised that I could ACTUALLY do this. I got the best runners high ever! Yes, it's lame how it was only about 1.5 miles, but it's a step.
I plan on getting to the point where I can actually keep up with Jessie. Although she's a fluffy girl, that lady can run.
Now, if only I can coerce her to invest in a bike. I would be uber excited!
So yesterday we ate chicken with salad and steamed broccoli for lunch. Good, right?! Better than fatty pizza.
Jessie drank a protein meal replacement shake. Since her job requires her to work late hours, she was starving when she came home. She ate tostitos chips (7 chips instead of her normal 45) with...cheese on top && a piece of ham. Okay, not so healthy, but we are poor. We deal with what we have lieing around in the house.
I had a black bean burrito with chicken in it, and a side of chili. MMMMmmmm good! && don't judge me for going out, but after work I went out to Big Boss Brewery and had 2 beers. Afterwards (like around 3 in the morning) I took my fat-ass out to Sheetz and got a turkey pretzel melt. I did not know if it was healthy or not, so I ate half of it last night. This morning I had the other half for breakfast.
BOOM! I just looked up the calories for my pretzel melt...only 560!
Oh yeah, and to top it off, I rode my bike all the way to Jessies house. It was about 5 miles. I feel bad ass.
