Week 1 - done.

Options
Today is the end of my week one. I have lost roughly 8 pounds. This is a huge milestone for me, especially since I have never lost this much before, or tried. I started off with walking. I used the treadmills at the gym to get to my target heart rate, and told it how many calories I wanted to burn in a certain amount of time. That thing kicked my butt! I ended up walking about 9+ miles last week. I'm starting to feel different. Slowly. I feel a tad lighter, I have more energy, and I feel my body building resistance to what would normally make me out of breath. The only area that is noticably smaller is my butt! My husband isn't too happy about that but it has to go! :tongue:

I wanted to thank everyone on this site for giving me the motivation and help that I needed. I'm not done yet!! Still a long way to go :drinker:

    You are doing awesome!! It's so sweet your Mom posted.


    Have you set any mini goals yet? I'm starting to think about doing some. I have the items I want thought out (opi nail polish and Victoria secret goodies) but I don't know what weight to set them at.
