I RAN!!

Well, I finally got my butt out of bed and ran on the treadmill this morning. I only did a mile though - not much, but it's better than nothing. I laid in bed for a half hour arguing with myself about why I didn't want to get up but I finally decided I better do it or I'll never lose any weight. So, I did. I'm always glad once I get up and run, but it's the getting up part that causes me problems!! I felt great afterwards and kicked myself for not getting up earlier to get a longer run in. I hope to hit the snooze alot less tomorrow and get up earlier to get at least 2 miles in.

I also weighed myself this morning and it wasn't pretty. I'm up to 165 - that is about 8 pounds more than when I started running last year. Ugh. That makes my official BMI at 25.1, which means I am officially "overweight". That is the first time I've ever been in that category. I've always had a BMI under 25 before (over 25 is considered overweight). I don't like that word - now, the question is can I stick with this and get back down again? I hope so.

  1. Of course you can stick to it. You have accomplished much harder things in your life like beginning to run in the first place! You can do it Amy. I know you can. Pray as you run that God takes away all pain, all fatigue any issues. Love you girl!!!!!!!!!!!!
