OMG, I was so excited this morning after my trip to the gym.. I ran a full mile today!! Holy cow! I was shocked when I looked down and I'd ran .6 miles, and wasn't huffing and puffing waiting for the time to be up.. so I took charge and stayed at 4.5 mph til the end of my mile.. I finished in 13:30.. Which is my starting point for getting faster..
I have a client that has a runner girlfriend and she's given me some tips.. So I'm excited to get into running like I thought I would be a long time ago.. I'm so bad at procrastinating.. Which is why I haven't blogged in a while.. Well, partly why.. Anyone ever get all into doing something, only to burn out after a while (omg, no way.. never had that happen either.. hehe).. well, I think that's what happened with me..
But I hope this time I will be back permanently.. because I need the encouragement from other blogs and from comments.. It makes me happy when I see how many followers I have.. It makes me happy to see others do so well on their own journeys.. So happy that I haven't needed to take my Paxil for 3 days now.. YAY!! Always good to get away from a dependency on medications..
Now I just have to tell myself not to try too much too soon with the running thing.. I've got that high where I wanna go back after work and see if I can do it again.. lol
Weight Watchers is wonderful, once you get out of that mindset that you can have ANYTHING.. well, you can, but just smaller portions.. well, I have to ban myself from some things because I just can't say stop with them.. But I figure once my stomach is used to smaller portions, I will try to introduce them back into my eating world..
How was everyones weekend? Did ya have fun? Get out in this nice weather?
Good to see you back! We need you too! It's great to head you didn't have to take your meds and congrats on running the mile!
ReplyDeleteYou're awesome! I am bad at keeping up with blogging too but always, always trying. I do so much better when I do blog. But that is amazing on running a mile (trust me, I am not a runner and no matter how much weight I lose I haven't attempted to run that far!) so congrats!
ReplyDeleteHey! Thanks for finding me and following. I did the same. I am new to running myself, just starting with the C25K. I am excited and anxious. The support and encouragement from other readers and blogs has been amazing. More than I ever expected.
