out with the old
ok so I am making a change. I have let myself get off track on my weight loss journey in the past year. Granted I did have a baby but I let that be an excuse to eat whatever and stop even the simplest exercising. As a result I have not only gained back all of the weight I lost before pregnancy I added another 5 pounds on top of it. So in full disclosure and to help be accountable I am putting it all out on the interwebs. That's right I will be posting my weight and progress every Friday in a post I will be calling Friday Figures.
Welp. Here goes...
The scale says: 229.0 (+/-0)
Exercise: I'll be going from Saturday-Friday so this past week I exercised once. Last Saturday I walked a 5K with my sister. All in all we walked about 5 miles that day. That's it. No other days of exercising, I am hoping to get to the gym 4-5 times a week. *fingers crossed* :-/
Highs: Completing my first 5K in probably 5 or so years.
Lows: 3 pieces of birthday cake, the birthday pie (both accompanied with ice cream) but luckily this won't be a normal week.
Moral Victory of the Week: I didn't really feel winded whist walking the 5K. This is especially victorious because there was a pretty steep climb for some part of it but I didn't feel as though I couldn't do it PLUS I was pushing Jocelyn in a stroller. Sure my feet hurt for a day and a half afterward but that's to be expected since I not only added poundage I haven't been doing a lot of exercising. I'm hoping to do Barber to Boise, another 5K, October 15th so we'll see if the recovery period is shortened this next time. :)
Time to get this weight loss show on the road and get to a healthy life style. Bring it on! :)
