I am not sure how large our neighborhood is in a distance of miles, but I walked it at a good clip this morning (with Poppy who is apparently still afraid of cars... we'll have to work on that) I timed it on the second lap- 12 minutes :c)
See, it would probably hurt me to just break into a run (Fatty Patty might fly up and blacken my eyes for my trouble) so this week I will walk it at a good clip in the mornings to get my body used to moving again. Next week I will begin a slow jog burst in between walkings. after that feels okay (and after I find some decent jogging shoes... might be a few pay days, ya'll. All I have at the moment is an old pair of slightly large Chuck Taylors and a wonderful pair of chocolate colored Vans, great for awesomeness in general... not so suited for running.)
SO...
That being said it is time for WEIGH IN MONDAY!
YAY!
This is a potato... Kate takes pictures of the things she loves. It's usually pictures of the TV.
So this morning: 184.4 Lbs (I am 5'3"... making me pretty pudgy, ya'll)
Walking the block : 12 minutes
If I can ever get the E.G. to help me out, There will be pictures soon.
I am feeling optimistic, though E.G. does not think I am dedicated because I have been using words like "I am going to try" and "well, my plan is..." but not sounding very confidant. How could I possibly sound confidant about something I have absolutely never done!?!? I thought I sounded confidant... Guess not.
I DO feel confidant though... um, and sweaty. Off to hit the shower and resume my duties as The Mother of All Things Awesome.
You are my hero today. Good luck with your regimen. I am so happy to read your humor! Keep it up!

ReplyDeleteThis is great! And you have guts.
ReplyDeleteI wish I was there so we could go walking together though, it is always nice to walk with someone. :)
Thanks you guys!!
ReplyDeleteLaurel, me too. I am enjoying Poppy, even though she looked at me as if I was trying to kidnap her at first. She was all "uh... hey Mom... sooooo what'cha doing here? You know, I didn't REALLY mean to shed all over the carpet... It's not my fault you know... Oh we're *gulp* GOING somewhere? really?"
