I have failed again and again when it comes to this losing weight thing. About a month ago I got so frustrated I told Michelle I am done! I'm done trying and trying and getting no where. I'm so sick of working out only to get on the scale and find that I have gained! It's frustrating and very discouraging. So I gave up!
Fast forward to Sat, June 18... Lauree and I were waiting for the kids to return from Summer Camp and we were talking. Lauree began telling me that she just signed up with a new trainer to prepare for the Music City Half Marathon. That's the one I wanted to do last year, but never did. I barely made it through SoulWalk (5K) last September. Anyway, it peaked an interest in me and I asked her if it was too late to join. She said no. (Turns out she had been praying that I would say I wanted in!) She emailed me the workout schedule and sent me a link to a website that she uses to monitor her diet, exercise, etc. called myfitnesspal.com.
I just recorded my first weigh in and measurements. I'm bigger than I thought I was. I have to get serious about this! I wasn't this big when I was 9 1/2 months pregnant with a 9 lb 1 oz baby!!! This is totally unacceptable and inexcusable!
The Music City Half Marathon is Oct 2, 2011. I have a lot of work to do between now and then, but with God's help, I CAN DO THIS!!!
