Walking The Weight Away? Here’s Hoping.

treadmill

March 1st I decided to start to get back on track. I started eating right, exercising and getting more rest.  Here’s what my typical day looks like:

5:30 -Make breakfast for the boys and have coffee with Alan

7:40 – Take Tommy to school

Go to the grocery store and get whatever I plan to make for dinner

Have a greek yogurt, piece of fruit and a bottled water

Treadmill for 40 minutes at a speed of 3.2 to 3.5

Walk my 3 dogs

Do my household chores (endless!)

Shower

Lunch is usually a salad with tuna and a bottled water

Dinner is whatever I make the boys (Husband and son) I just eat less than I use to.

What I am doing wrong: The wrong shoes! Or lack thereof. I was told to go barefoot, that doesn’t work.  I need to shop around for the right shoes, that’ll keep me on the treadmill longer.

Also, I have been told to put the treadmill on an incline, it’s bad to use it flat.

I have 10 pounds to lose, but those ten pounds don’t want to get lost!

    Vibrams or inov8s!!! I’m a crossfitter so I don’t think treadmills are good but the key to any workout is trying to increase intensity or your muscles and body will adapt to a consistent intensity

    Barefoot? Who told you that? Go to Second Sole (there’s one in Medina but I know they have another location). They will fit you to a good pair of shoes that won’t take weeks to break in!!

      Thank you, Charisse. Trapper actually told me to go barefoot!
