My parents got my husband and I a gym membership for Christmas. I was so excited. At the time I weighed 268 lbs. I thought that this would be a chance to change my life and the lives of my children for the better. I have a few goals that I want to accompolish with this chance that I've been given.
1. I want to be healthy. I will use a scale to measure my progress, but I will not bow down to the scale. I hope to loose 130 lbs, but more than anything I just want to set a healthy example for my 3 children.
2. I want to be able to walk into a store and buy something. I hate going to fat stores or fat sections in a store. I want to shop like a normal person and enjoy the shopping process.
3. I want to surprise my Dad and my brother by running a 5 k with them.
After 3 months of water aerobics, walking on the treadmill and lifting weights I have lost 15 lbs! I am very excited about my progress so far and hope to keep up my momentum if not speed it up. This month (April) I plan to start running using the Hal Higdon Beginning Runner's Guide. Wish me luck!
Here I go!
