katies71's Journal, 28 April 2019

Alright guys, listen up!! I had a new high AND a new low today and I am super excited about both!!!

My weight this morning was 269. I haven't weighed that little since 2001. I am BEYOND excited, I am so shook up over this. I would say that I have no words but clearly I still suffer from having too many words lol.

That's cool and all but my new high is enough to put this day over the top for me!!


Guys!! I walked 2 miles today. 2! In the interest of transparency I did have to sit down for about an hour to get that second mile in but...I walked 2! whole! miles!!!!

I did decide on the way back that 2 is probably a little to much so we are going to try the 1.75 mile trip next lol...I'll work up to the two mile trip a little bit more! My goal is to walk to the library...in our town that is sort of the center of all the good stuff. It's 2.5 miles each way...it's probably going to take a bit but...I'm just going to keep chipping away it!! I want to thank all you guys again for all the messages and comments. I know I probably didn't seem like it was helping at the time but you guys are the reason that I was able to get the surgery done. If it weren't for you, I think I would have quit months back. I think this would have gone the same way it's always gone. I'm gung-ho and then...I just ghost out...but not this time. This time, it's working, I'm working, I just want you all to know. Thank you!

You are doing great! Keep it up. I had gotten up to 248lbs when I started 'running'. Meaning, I would do a sloow jog around the block. Not even two miles. I had to 'work-up-to-that'. Today I just did 11 miles. But, I STARTED with just trying to get a mile. The ironic thing is that when I was 248lbs I burned a ton of calories. Cardio got me wayy more 'bang for the buck' when I was heavier. Do your thing! Ignore anyone who tells you to do something different. This is your-damn-body and your-damn-life! Good luck!

It is OK to do your miles in segments—it still counts toward improving your health and it still keeps your metabolism working. I often only have 15-20 minutes between classes so I will walk . Don’t knock yourself down. If you can do a mile here and a mile there you will be surprised how quickly it adds up. No stretch that arm and pat yourself on the back.

Preface with: if there is physical pain don't do it... Otherwise heck if all is well so far I would suggest do the couple miles a few more times, maybe even 1mile am then 1mile that same afternoon. Then on a nice day pack a lunch and do your 2.5 to the library : ) take a day to do it 👏👏👏👏
