Exercise Success!

JenBanksYEG

When I first stated my back to the gym and weight loss journey, I could push myself to do 3-5 minutes on the elliptical without sweating and dry heaving.
Yesterday, I did 45 minutes of intervals on the elliptical then did another 20 minutes of hills on the treadmill.
Oh, and I can run, I can actually run!!!
This is SO huge for me!!! I am so proud of myself.

How far have you come in your exercise?

You should be proud!!! It is one of the greatest feelings in the world and gives you such hope!!!

I also remember the day that I swam for 30 minutes straight without needing to stop! :happy:

Wonderful!!!:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

OMG! That is so awesome! You really rocked it! I'd LOVE to be able to conquer the eliptical. I just can't seem to get it. It's become my mountain I'll never climb. I actually fear it...Silly, I know.

Isnt' running exhilerating?! I love to run. I'm trying to decide on whether I want to do a 5K this fall for Run for the Cure at my high school where I work. Just been too preoccupied lately. Son going to college next month...need I say more. Only child! Yep, I'm preoccupied alright!

Truly, I am so proud of you! You're my new idol! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :smooched:

YOU CAN SO DO the 5k!!! even if you only get to walk... visit Prevention magazine's website. They have tips on walking/running long distances and the timings for daily exercise to allow you to be ready by then :flowerforyou: Even if you have to do early early am workouts dont let your busy schedule let u forget about YOU.... you deserve it!!!

Congrats on the workout achievements everyone!!!!

Haha, realizing that you actually have endurance can be addicting! That is awesome; running is the best.

As for me, I'm about to finish my very first fitness program, P90X. It's Day 90 and my last workout begins in 30 minutes, yay!

That is so cool! Congratz!

My family thinks I'm silly when I get so excited about the little things happening as I loose weight. But, they are all being supportive and laugh with me.

Keep up the good work!
