At 155 lbs the highest I've ever been in my life I think its time to take control of my state of mind and body. When I got married I weighted 98 lbs and ever since I can remember, I've been a very petite person.. Don't get me wrong at 98lbs I was a very healthy person a little under what I should weight but still very healthy..Not to mention I ate like a queen everyday...Well I don't intend to go bulimic or anorexic to lose weight but I do want to push myself to work harder on eating healthier and having a workout routine..My goal is to weight 110 or 115 which is supposed to be my perfect weight according to my doc...Let us begin on this very difficult adventure. And I say difficult because so many start out on the right path and so many quit out of laziness or just plain desperation...I pray this will not be my case..
For me everything just fell into place..Lent season started and I said to myself I was going to give up something I really loved.. Coca Cola and if possible all soda beverages...Uhhggg should of gave it a little more thought but I didn't. So now that I was supposedly going to start eating healthy my other issue was the treadmill..I had been debating on getting on that treadmill for quite some time now..I remember when I told my hubby please, please get me a treadmill, I promise I'll use it..lol...Don't we all lie a little to get what we want..Well long story short the treadmill along with an elliptical have been sitting there looking pretty. While I'm sitting in the computer playing those addictive Facebook games...But yesterday was different I felt depressed, upset because my son wanted me to play with him and I felt I was out of breath just 5 minutes in our game... I've known for a while now that I need to start doing something to get into shape but it wasn't until yesterday that my son looked at me and said..."mom are you tired already." Shortly after that I put on my running shoes and started up the treadmill. I was hoping to walk, jog, or run for an hour but the most I got was 30 min..I was a little disappointed but eventually I got over it..I need to start out slowly so that my body can adjust to the new changes.
Today we took our son along with our two dogs to the park..We walked around the whole park and I jogged on our way back to the car.Well not all the way but I tried too, most of the trail...I felt good afterwards and I think I'm ready for the treadmill tomorrow..I have been eating what I normally do but in smaller quantities..I need to get some good low carb recipes that I can cook..Any suggestions anyone?
