Junk Food Free July – Week 3 Result

I did a moderate amount of exercise this week. I did manage to beat my personal best for running greenlake with a time of 29:19. The majority of my exercise was volleyball, which included my weekly friday night volleyball at Alki, followed by the tournament on Saturday.

I’m still on track with avoiding junk food. It’s getting easier to avoid it. Although, there are times when it would be nice to have the option to have a sweet of some sort. For example, on warm sunny day a snow cone sure would hit the spot. Only 10 days left. In August, I’ll allow myself to partake of a treat on occasion. I’m considering two options: the first is only a certain type of treat – like only an ice cream cone. The other option is to have any type of treat but only once a week. I should probably limit the size of the treat so things don’t get out of hand. What works for you? I’m interested to know.

Although three weeks is a short time, I am seeing progress and feeling the difference. For one, clothes are fitting on me better. I still have a while to go before I can justify getting a new wardrobe but that’s something I look forward to. Also, I’m starting to see the difference in my reflection. By the way, my best friend Jed is getting married in mid September, so I’m hoping to make significant progress by then. It’ll be great to know that I did my best to look good in my tux.
