OK I'm doing it. I have started the blog. I walked ...and THAT is the complete and entire plan. I don't know what the hell I am doing frankly. All I know is that I want to get back to running. The problem? I'm just a bit over 300 lbs and I want to run again so badly. I am pretty much down on myself due to my current situaion. It feels current.. but its actually been approx. 10 years that I'm in over my head with this weight issue.
My main problem is that I am completely addicted to food. I have tried more than my share of diets to no avail. I keep thinking that there's got to be an easy way. But I am slowly, veeeerrry slowly, starting to realize that THAT is a pipe dream. Unfortunately its going to take some hard work. Oh shit, I hate hard work, LOL!
So I got an app called Couch to 5K. And you know what, even the very beginning of their training is too much for me. They want you to start at a much faster pace than I can do now. So I'm going step back a bit and do the following:
Walk for 20 minutes - 3x a day.
It may seem like alot but I have just got to do this! I made my decision this afternoon. After a lounging day, in from the snow and cold outside. Stuffing whatever down my face. I was painting and thinking about how I just started meditating. Been doing real well about 15 minutes every morning. Also started to think about losing weight- as I ALWAYS do. Not sure what it was but I said to myself, just get out and go take a walk, start tonight!
And so I did.
So I'm not doing anything eating-wise right this second because that is a MASSIVE undertaking and I have got to get my exercise down for now. But I just might change my thoughts on this in the coming days..So here goes, please, please,please wish me luck!
TODAY > 20 minutes - 10 minutes in one direction , then turned around and 10 minutes back home ( i managed a 15 second jog in the second half) HEY you gotta start somewhere!
