So another week down and I am definitely seeing results now. I've finally made it below that mark I never seemed to be able to do before (at least not since the kiddos) and I have found new motivation from doing so. I've decided with only having 6.5lbs to go to reach my max goal weight ~ that is if I don't plateau that once I'm there I am going to judge myself by the way I look, not by the pounds the scale says. My goal is to fit comfortably in a size 10 ~ I don't want to just be squeezing my butt in them (I want them to look GOOD). I know, a ten is probably not a huge goal to strive for but I've had two kids, I am in no way ever going to be wearing a 2 piece swim suit (other than a tankini) and I just feel that a 10 will be a HEALTHY look for me.
I have been consistently exercising for a month now and I am so happy that I have stuck with it. I have managed to stretch my jogging to almost 2 miles ~ which is the furthest I can go in our neighborhood without doing multiple laps. I want to research 5K runs in our area and work towards training to do one. I am by no means a runner, and never have been ~ but I think that would be an accomplishment worth striving for. I guess we will have to wait and see.
I wish I would have been able to reach my goal weight by next weekend but hey I am just going to be proud of how far I've made it :)
We head to Indianapolis next weekend after Joey's last soccer game and trophy celebration. We are going for qualifying weekend for the Indianapolis 500. After qualifying is over we are going to stay Monday and Tuesday for a mini-vacation. They have a really nice zoo where you can feed the Giraffes (which I hope Peytie really enjoys) plus they have a really nice Children's Museum that we might have time to check out if the kids are still behaving before we head home on Tuesday.
Here's to another successful week of dieting!!!
