Ran 16 miles this week!

It is so true that the first 2 days are the most difficult. I did my 4 mile run this morning. That makes 16 miles this week! It was actually difficult because my stomach was growling and I felt like I had bricks in my shoes. But I did feel clear headed and great to be out running.
Last night was really hard. It was so cold and I just wanted to have a warm meal when I got home for the comfort part of it. But, I stayed strong.... and grumpy. And my Fiance made himself these yummy garlic rice noodles that made the whole house smell like I could eat it. And he had a couple glasses of wine. It was the first time that I felt angry while fasting. Not sure where that came from. Usually I have a strong sense of peace throughout the fast. Was it because I wanted to be eating and enjoying myself? I also realized that this is the first fast that I have done while he was around. Usually I like to fast when he is out of town on work so that I have more of an opportunity to be away from food. So, kinda interesting observing myself fasting while he is home.... a little different.
The mornings are always so much easier than at night for some reason. At night I get cold and wiped out and really want to eat. Then, morning comes and I am so happy I stuck to it. Seems so worth it by morning time.
Thanks for all the support. Fun to have a community to share these healthy experiences with... and the ups and downs that come with it!
