I have never been one to consistently workout for an extended period of time, I usually go through the New Years fad of working out and it drops off around March. I have never been a size 1 and have tried in the past to loose weight...but always seem to get discouraged when the weight doesn't melt away quickly. (I'm a little impatient) I'll watch Biggest Loser and think how the crap do these people shed the weight!! I have a hard time remembering that they spend all day working out....if my "job" was the treadmill I'd probably look the same way too! haha I know that I'm never going to be a 00, but I would love to loose 20-30 lbs. eventually, I look at pictures of myself freshmen year in college and think I was really that much smaller???...and goodness I have a ways to go!
More recently though...In January I started running 3-4 times a week in the morning with my friend Melisa. I'm actually running my FIRST 5K next weekend and couldn't be more excited! I have always wanted to run a race but was never confident enough to....I might not running the entire time BUT I'm okay with it. I wish that I would have taken a before photo of myself before I started working out consistently. I may not look a whole lot different but my clothes are fitting more loosely and I feel SO GREAT..(which is the important part right?) My goals for myself are so stay this active and not fall off the wagon, I feel like I have been pushing through and now it's April. I've made it over the March hump. At some point in my life I would LOVE to run a half or even whole marathon. Let's just start simple at get through the 5K next week. haha
