It has been less than a week since I started walking and boy I am amazing myself!

I find that even though I think about taking the short cut, I don't! I push myself to take an even longer route.

I find that I actually enjoy walking - by myself.

I find myself thinking that once I am in shape maybe I could train to run a 5K.

I find myself eating healthier so as not to defeat the purpose of getting out there and walking.

I park further away and walk.

I am motivated and determined - parts of me I thought were lost when I became a SAHM.

I look forward to getting up and getting out.

Stretching is a good thing and I look forward to seeing if I can feel it.

I'm competitive and now I want a pedometer just to see if I can beat melbs numbers

The list goes on and on... Just wanted to share. It makes it more real when I say it out loud and someone other than my boys hears me, lol.

I can feel your energy!!! You are doing awesome.

When you are ready for it, you can try the Couch to 5k. It eases you into running. I have NEVER considered myself a runner but I was able to do it and now I'm running 4 miles and hoping to tackle 5 miles this weekend. I tell you all this because I know you can do it!!!
