Treadmilling....

Was a good workout today. I would have loved to walk outside but i had my granddaughters all morning and my boys only had a half day of school, they're off till Monday. They didn't want to walk outside. I'm thankful for the treadmill on days like this. :) I was running 5.5 mph for a while. Can't do that for too long. I usually walk 3.4- 3.7.
"I feel great"!! If that's my reward?... I want more!! :)

Tomorrow Never Comes

I don't know if you're like me? Or maybe I'm like you....hahahaha. But everyday i would say.... "I'm gonna walk tomorrow" Well {"Tomorrow Never comes" I just kept putting it off } I was thinking of changing my blog title to.... OH, Just Do It! ; )
While the weather is still nice out i got out this morning. 2.14 miles I took a different route. 30 minutes into my walk my heels started hurting. Must be the concrete. A while back when i was out walking, and Sam was scootering, i ran/jogged for a bit. My heels hurt after that too. I don't have problem when i jog on the TM. It does have cushion though. I do have extra insert supports in my shoes. hmmm
Anyway, I bought me a new pedometer last week. It basically has all the features as my old one, accept this new one has Aerobic Steps, as well as regular step, and 7 day memory. Much easier to program and read. Plus the reviews were all 4.5 - 5 Omron HJ-112
Anyhoo, Thanks for droppin by, and Jeanne thanks for the encouraging info you left me!

Happy Walking/Running!!

Fall Day

After I took the boys to school this morning, I decided to venture my walk outside. It's cloudy 50 degrees. As i was walking, leaves were falling off the trees everywhere. What a pretty sight to see all the different mixed colored leaves scattered together. I have said it before, It so helps me to journal my progress here.
In 2005 I went on the program....6 week Body Makeover.. Michael Thurman. I lost 20 lbs in 3 months. I felt great! My husband went to Oklahoma for work for 3 months and I fell off the wagon sorta speak. Little by little putting the lbs back on again. I was so mad at myself. I don't think i ever got over it. LOL
Well last night i took the boys to Fall Fest at one of the local A/G churches in town. Games candy, stuff like that, anyway i ran into a gal i haven't seen since last spring, she looked thinner. I asked her how she did it. "6 week body makeover"... she says" She lost 40 lbs since April.

Right now I'm to the point that i will try anything to loose 20lbs..... 40 would be great! I know it's a realistic goal, It's a mindset that i need to wrap my head around. It's just a struggle.
"Prayer Changes Things" I need to be praying that God will help me on this journey!
Have a Blessed Day!!

Gone the extra mile....

That i did. I was ready to quit at a mile this morning, but i got my second wind, sorta speak. I love listening to my favorite christian music. {Newsboys, Casting Crowns}.. stuff like that. I started singing to the music and the time just flew by. It kept me moving. :)
