A quick diet and exercise update

Image
So for the last couple of weeks I have not been running. It's just been too hot and humid. I've been exercising indoor. Finally today I thought that I had better try to get back out there, and stop making excuses. Although it was a little bit hard, I did surprise myself. I did just under 2 miles of walk/run intervals with an improved speed of about 16.45 min./mi. I've got about 4 months until the Run Disney event. I can do this! Currently doing the "Keto" diet. I've pretty much eliminated most carbs from my diet. I'm not eating: pasta, rice, potatoes, any grains or flours, or sugar, or some fruits. What I am eating is: chicken, meat, tried some fish (didn't like it), shrimp, green vegetables, cauliflower, salads, avocado, berries, nuts, and protein smoothies with almond milk. Somewhat limiting, but I'm willing to give it a go. I think I lost 3 pounds, but did cheat on the diet and am currently fluctuating in my weight again. Stay tu
