A step at a time

Wednesday, August 15, 2012

I keep going back and forth trying to push myself to do more than I can. I have to remind myself, and perhaps can find a saying to post on my fridge to help me remember, that a mile every day of brisk walking will help me get to my goal. I can gradually bump up as I find 1 mile a day to easy, right? I second guess myself so much. I need to fight sugar cravings too. Give me strength! Also, tell me why when I start working out, eating better and drinking water, I gain weight before i lose. Like 5 pounds. Water weight? It frustrates me so. I am just trying to get to a healthier me. Not a size 3 because I would not look healthy that small with the frame I have. I WILL GET THERE! I CAN DO THIS!

    I was in the same boat - up almost 4 lbs for a few weeks when I was really on track with exercise - finally, finally, finally it started down! Stay with it - it will move in the right direction soon!

    Yes you can emoticon keep up that walking. I started out walking a little bit in my neighbor and have bummped it up in a year to a 3.5 mile run/walk. You can do it one step at a time ,one day at a time.
