wOrKiNg OuT!

Hello!! I'm writing this and wondering how I'm going to express how good I feel through typing...ok well I cant..but I'm feeling good!! I've been to the gym 5x this week. That's the most consistant I've ever been. That may sound completely ridiculous, but when your overweight, until something clicks in your brain..you will not be motivated! This is what did it for me..this is very personal but i'm going to share it.

On Monday [2-13] my fiance and I went out to lunch. As we were walking out of the restaurant and I was opening the door, and older man came up to open the door and said "baby on board" and laughed. I walked to the car and balled my eyes out. People don't understand that your weight is not something you can change over night. It's not like he was commenting on my makeup or outfit. I think that's why it hurts even worse because it's not something I can change right away. I don't know who that guy was, but I thank him. If that never happened I don't think I would be as motivated as I am now.

I have been watching what I eat and going to the gym. I pray that I can keep up this motivation. All I need to do it think about sitting in my car crying, I think that will help! I'm not thinking about it anymore like "im giving it a month to see if I can tell a difference" I'm thinking about it as, its my new life. I need to be in the gym 5x a week.

Everyone says I need to lose weight for my health, but honestly, I dont even care about that right now...I just want to look good. I've never felt good about myself in my life. I want to feel pretty. Good health will of course come along with it. I dont want to lose weight by a certain amount of time, and I dont want to go to fast because I dont want all the loose skin.

I havent been doing any weights, yet. I know that is a big part of it too, but i'm focusing on cardio right now. My routine on the treadmill is, start out at 2.5 for about 2 min them bump it up to 3.0 for a couple minutes and walk consistantly at 3.5 for a good 15 min. Bump it up to 3.8 for 2-3 minutes then 4.0 for 1-2 minutes. Doing 4.0 is a struggle for me. Thats REALLLLY fast walking!! I also struggle at 3.8. Even 3.5 a little but I find that its bearable to do. I stay on anywhere from 30-60 minutes.

I will be taking pictures of the treadmill time/mileage after i'm done and posting them once a week. I just think it's a good idea to do and to keep track of my workouts! [I also write down what I do each day]
