So this morning I drug my sorry (extra large) hiney outta bed and walked up and down my drive way twice... Yeah, I know whoop de doo, but it's a long driveway, at least 2/10 of a mile, and it's up a hill. It was 5:30 am, pitch black, and surrounded by scary creepy forest trees and my sorry excuse for a guard dog had to be bribed to go with me... So I walked down the hill, when I got to the bottom , my dog took off and left me in the dark, I jogged up the hill, I looked up and saw a shooting star. Woo hoo... That was cool. Then, feeling slightly empowered, I went another go, walked down the hill, got totally creeped out and ran back up. Then sucked air for at least 4-5 minutes before I could compose myself and get in the shower...
It's a start... BTW- Due to last years illness, and possible depression I am about 22 pounds heavier than my 15 yr average at 172... I just want to see 172 again... That's all.
good for you!!!!
ReplyDeleteif you have a wii, there is a great program called EA Sports Active that only takes 20 minutes a day. I started in June and have lost 23 pounds. 14 of my friends are using it and everyone is raving about it.
I've noticed others blogging/journaling about weight issues. It seems like a good way of facing the problem head on. Do you think you'll be motivated to do what you need to do?
ReplyDeleteI wish you much success at getting on the path back to 172. :)
Good for you for getting started - and in the dark to boot. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteAt least you got up and out...im still laying here in bed saying tomorrow..........
ReplyDeleteIm proud of you!!
