I’m back….again
Well, I actually never really left but it’s been a while since I’m posted.
We got our new treadmill in April and on the 20th of April, I began power-walking to prepare my shins for the eventual transition to jogging. I used the iFit cards that came with the treadmill and they kicked my butt. I did this for about 10 weeks before I transitioned to the Couch to 5K running program. I got through week 4 before I went on vacation for about 2 weeks and then came back, re-did week 4 runs (and a little bit of softball). Now I’m back to to finish what I’ve started. My weight is 210lbs but I’ve lost 1.5 inches from my chest, 2 inches from my waist and an inch from my hips. I haven’t lost alot of weight but my clothes are definitely fitting better. I know my progress could be much better once I get a handle on my eating.
I’m dealing with a chaotic and stressful work situation so I’m pinching pennies and trying to keep my head down. I’ve decided to focus on the things I could control. Taking care of my health and becoming satisfied with the way that I look are my priorities and I figure if I can get my eating and exercise right, it will be an anchor in other parts of my life.
