i hate treadmills.
but my weight has been really jumpy lately, and i don't like it. i would like to lose about 15 more pounds before the wedding, which would put me at 65 pounds lost.
my treadmill buddy and my food diary. |
i totally lost all sense of food tracking there for awhile. i'm trying to get back on it, but it's still only a few days out of the week, it's slowly getting better though.
not only do i want to lose more before the wedding in october, but mandy and i would like to participate in the color run, probably not this year, but hopefully next year, so i want to learn to run!
it's the happiest 5k on the planet!
can you believe we want to participate in a 5k!?! I CAN'T.
i know even if i treadmill till next year i won't be able to run a 5k, but i may be able to jog a 5k or speedwalk a 5k. there are pictures of people way bigger than us having just as much fun as the people running! i just want to say i've done it!
today i ran/jogged about 2 minutes on the treadmill. it's the first time i've ever tried. i was only on about fifteen minutes, but i tried to jog (hands off the bars and everything!) about 15-20 seconds of ever song i listened to. the longest i went was 30 seconds, and when i got down to the 10 second countdown to the end of my treadmill time i bumped it up again. i feel really good right now, but i am a little more sweaty than usual. D:
so we'll see how it goes! my goal is just a pound this week, and to track everyday, even when i'm bad! (gonna try super hard not to be bad, though.)
next goal is to get on my bike once i move to days. i need to get the tires aired back up and try to scrub some of the rust off the gear shift (not that care about gears). if i have fun with the bike and ride it somewhat regularly, i'm gonna save up for a bike that i really like, rather than the yard sale bike sitting by the front porch.
fell in love with this bike today at work. $150 that i don't have, though. D: |
baby steps, though. baby steps to maybe a super cute bike. :D
peace.
Every time I go to Trader Joe's there are bikes outside with baskets. Some baskets are decorated with flowers and they are so cute. I want one now ! ! ! Living close to things sucks in a way, because you are forced to get off your ass. I have lost a lot of weight and walked to the store for the first time in my life. I still cant ride a bike, but in another 100 Lbs or so, I will ! ! ! ! And my bike will be rockin' and my basket will have Christmas Lights ! ! Epic.
ReplyDeletei love having things nearby! but most of the things around me are just far enough away for me to not want to walk! i walk up to the dollar general if it's an emergency, but a sweet bike with a little basket up front. . .oh the places i would go!
