Weigh in on Tuesday was initially disappointing because I really felt skinnier! My tummy felt flatter, my jeans were loose I was expecting 2lb off and hoping for 3. Alas no - another 1lb drop. Still these pounds will come off even if it has to be one by one. I've now lost 6lb and next week I WILL get my half stone award.
I that vein I have been watching The Biggest Loser compulsively and it inspired me to get back on the treadmill today and see what I could do. I decided not to stick to my usual intervals and try 5k instead just to get a benchmark time.
I started out running 2 walking 2 but after 30 minutes I ran out of steam so was running 1 walking 3. At 2 miles (3.1k) I thought I wasn't going to make it and decided to quit at 2.5 miles. Then I realised that I couldn't give up. Even if I had to walk the rest of the way I had to complete it. And I did :D
5k in 42:55. Lots of room for improvement and I have a month to make that improvement - yeah!!!
