Dear James, Daniel and Emily,
So made it through the first week, with no ill effects. It was actually pretty easy. It take a little effort to make sure I have something cold to drink, but otherwise I have been fine. I don't expect to see any difference any time soon, but I still feel good to be breaking that habit. And I haven't replaced it with drinking vast amounts of regular soda either (which was something of a worry), because when I have to count those calories in my daily totals it makes me less likely to get that big soda.
Didn't run yesterday, Monday night I was feeling the effects of the long run combined with a day of sitting at work. So I let myself have another couple of days to recover. Should be back into it tomorrow though. And hope to get in a good long run Sunday morning, at least 8 miles is my goal.
My resumption of calories tracking is working so far, this week it was mostly about just tracking, not so much on reducing. Because I have some time off, in our last family vacation time before school, so there will undoubtedly be some eating out. My goal is just to get back in the habit of tracking my meals, then in the coming weeks start getting back to getting my consumption back to acceptable numbers. It's a process as always.
