Slacking!!

For no reason whatsoever really I've been slacking. I completed my Air Force PT test last week with a 93.7% and I'm happy with that. I maxed my push ups and sit ups and my run was :30 longer than I was aiming for, but I'll take it. I'll need to remember next time to run at the same time I'll be testing beforehand so I get used to the heat, no wind, and ultra humid conditions! Since the PT test though I've been in the gym only once for a leg day...

I met up with Jed for the first time, we spent a good amount of time talking about my goals, my motivators, and what my challenges will be. I explained to him my biggest concern is my diet, my reactive hypoglycemia, and how that will affect my training in the future. In the past month and a half I haven't had any incidents but I feel I've also gotten a bit better at judging my body. I know sometimes I eat too many carbs and end up feeling super groggy, but I haven't mixed too many sugars with alcohol, or just straight binged on sweets like I used to. At times I definitely get cravings for a whole cake or something, but for the most part I'm over eating sweets. I do want to find a good recipe for brownies that might work while I'm training...though that might be wishful thinking!

Jed wrote out an initial plan for me as far as diet and exercise, so sometime this week I'll have to go to the grocery store and pick some stuff up. I'm not starting the plan until Monday, as this weekend I'll be in the water finishing up my scuba certification for most of both days! I'm incredibly excited for that and as small of a feat as it is I feel pretty good about myself that I can lift the tanks with relative ease, even if they are as tall as my legs, haha.

So Monday should be the beginning of what will be a challenging but hopefully rewarding road. It's going to take a toll on my social life, which is already dwindling so I'm not too concerned, and my will power. Can't wait to get started!!
