Yesterday, October 10th, 2011 I felt fat and miserable all day long. Having a 3 year old and new baby on the way has been weighing on my mind that I want to see them grow up, and I want to be involved in their sports and lives. Being obese and having high blood pressure @ 26, so I began to wonder if I would make it that long.
I decided it was time to do something, but nothing to dramatic so I can at least stick to it. Started looking around, and noticed some of my friends had started http://www.c25k.com/ in the past. Not sure how it turned out for anyone else, but I would love to hear about it in the comments below. I started today, and will try to update here when I complete my workout so 3 times a week (Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday). Also decided to switch to diet soda, and try to not eat as much. I WANT TO SEE MY KIDS GROW UP, AND BE INVOLVED!
So it begins...
Got up 45 minutes early (6:45am) so I could start my first day of C25K. I have downloaded the podcast from http://www.c25k.com/. The initial walk was great, and then the first 60 second jog came. I thought I was going to die (I have never been this heavy or out of shape). I pushed through it, and then the second, third, fourth, fifth, six, seven, and finally eighth 60 second jog came and went. I completed day one (turned out to be 2 miles)! It felt great, and I had sometime to myself.
Things I noticed:
I appear to have more energy today than I have had in a long time. Not sure if this relates to starting this or not. The other thing, I am hungrier today, than I have ever been at 5:00pm.
