My Weight Loss

Who knew running would actually be enjoyable....

Granted, I don't mean long distance running or super fast running. Just simply running.

This morning after my "Trouble Spots" work out I decided to walk the track until BF was done with his work out. I began with just walking the first couple, and walking faster than usual. Then I decided to run a lap and see just how far I could get. So it played out, run a lap, walk a lap, run a lap, walk a lap. Then, then, then, I ran two laps! (I realize this seems trivial in the eyes of many, but for me this is rather significant.)

I used to get winded running down my stairs or running the mailbox, which was just around 50 yards away. But I guess we all have to start somewhere, right?

I didn't get much sleep last night, was afraid that today would be a big fat failure as far as work out goes. But I feel pretty good about it, and hoping the rest of today is just as good.

As a side note, I used to be literally obsessed with the scale. I mean, get on it at least twice a day obsessed. I am going through withdraws when I go into my bathroom and see it lonely sitting there. I have resisted the urge to jump on it. I have decided just every Monday is good enough for now. Maybe I can do without for two weeks next month. That would be a shocker.

Stop belittling your progress by downplaying it missy!!! This is all about personal records and personal bests. Let go of what other people may or may not think of your progress and own every little positive damn thing you do! Hugs!
