Day 1 of the diet coke challenge went flawlessly. I drank sooo much more water than I have been and had lots of cucumber water at work. Yum! I can tell this is going to be hard though. I had gotten into the habit of drinking diet coke with lunch every day and I definitely felt the craving. Hopefully I'll keep on keepin' on.

Last night after work I headed stratight to the gym and hopped on the tredmill to do some running! Since I'm way out of running shape I did some 2 min. run 1 min. walk intervals for about 40 minutes. I was tired after just the first interval and didn't know how long I'd last but every interval got easier and easier. It made me excited to get going with running again!

When I got home I was really hungry and made a big dinner: a turkey, avocado and tomato sandwich, an apple with sunflower butter, 2 pickles and a side of sautees collard greens I bought from Whole Foods. I looove sauteed greens but these had a bit of a weird taste to them so I chucked them after a few bites.After dinner I met up with some friends at a bar down the street and sipped on just 1 beer (go me!). I finalllly had a Harpoon Winter Warmer which I've been craving all winter!

Now it's snowing a bit this morning so I'm using it as an excuse to lay around all day :) I slept in and then made a yummy breakfast: an omelette with 1 egg and 1 egg white and a handful of mozzarella cheese. Apple slices dipped in pumpkin butter and a cup of milk served as sides. Sometimes I just crave a cup of milk.I might try to do some at home zumba today but we'll see. I'm pretty sore from yesterday and may just rest. Happy Saturday!
