Coming out of hiding...

I've been hiding. I've intentionally stayed away from this blog because I didn't want to face the fact that I've been doing NOTHING to get healthy and NOTHING to lose weight. Well...I am officially coming out of hiding today. I am making a declaration: I am through with excuses. It seems my life has become one big "excuse"...and a sorry one at that. But I'm through. No one can make me do this. No one can make my life perfect so that it will be easy to change. Ain't gonna happen. So I am officially off of my butt and walking.

Monday: walked 1 mile
(Did NOT let the fact that I had been extremely sick most of the day stop me. NO EXCUSES!)

Tues: walked 1 mile
(Did not allow getting home from my son's band concert late be an excuse to not walk!)

Wed: Today. I will walk 1 mile.

Thurs: Will walk 1 mile.

Friday: Going out of town to visit a friend. I'm bringing my walking shoes and we are going to walk 3 miles! (Hope I don't die...lol!)

My goal is to begin walking 2 miles next week - 6 days a week. I would eventually like to start running. I have been visiting some amazing runners' blogs...they have been my inspiration to get off my butt and cut the excuses!

Note to self:
You CAN do this. There is not ONE thing that can stop you...except yourself. It won't be easy and that's okay! It won't feel good at first...but that's good!! You may not see any results right away...but you're getting healthy day by day. What results have you been seeing following your previous plan of "couch sitting"?? Yeah...the kind of results to be expected. You WILL see results if you stick with it. Be patient. Be consistent. Just do it.
NO EXCUSES!!
