Fat and Normal

I got to talk to Emily last night(my best friend since I was 19). When I speak with her it’s like therapy to me, we are almost one in the same we have many of the same problems especially with food and family. So I expressed my frustration in my weight loss progress, the only saving grace for me is that I can go on like this for years (dieting and not going anywhere). But she brought something to light that I often forget.

I am impatient, I want to get married and I was just divorced two years ago. I want to have babies and I am only 25, and most of all right now I want to weigh 120 lbs. Well like the rest of my life I need to learn that things will happen and I will loose the weight if I stick to it and just keep on living. Not just living but living my life to the fullest and that means eating healthy whole foods and exercising. So instead of being impatient I need to take stock of what has happened in my life and look at the whole picture. This week I am down a pound from my gain last week. 156.4, so that means since I started this journey in October I am down 7 pounds. woot!

Exercise log for yesterday, i’m still feeling kind of fatigued so I didn’t get in a full hour but any progress is some progress and I did run for 15 minutes in a row yesterday. My heals have been hurting me latley I think this is because I have not been properly fitted for running shoes and I have just started to put some real miles in.

I am going to the running store on Sunday with my mom to be properly fitted for some kick ass running shoes!
