I did an extra 5 mins on the treadmill tonight. I even managed to run for about 30 seconds!! That is something I haven't done in YEARS!!!! While this might seem like a tiny victory to some, for me it's almost astronomical!!! Especially after how bad I felt about myself last night!!!

I was going to try the 30day shred again tonight but my dh was in the workout room with me and that makes me kind of uncomfortable. But one small step for MEMAW!!!!!

    ya memaw!!

    it's so important to acknowledge even small little victories, because they make you feel good about yourself, which is so integral to healthy living.

    here is tomorrow and the next extra minute!:flowerforyou:
  • It must feel wonderful to be able to run, even if only for thirty seconds, if you have not been able to run in years. Maybe in a few days see if you can extend that to 45 seconds :)
