Well I started Monday morning.

The scale was tipping a whopping 211 pounds.

I was going to do measurements for the neck, arms, chest, waist, hips, thighs and calfs but didn’t do it.

I have to walk and or run 112 miles. I have 4107 minutes of cardio (my choice).

On Sunday I still had 112 miles to go but I was down to 3897 minutes of cardio.

I am trying to average 70 minutes a day at this point so that I can have one day of rest during the week.

This week I focused on the eating from Monday to Thursday and on Friday our family joined the YMCA.

That was even more of an adjustment for me. Wow talk about feeling as if I was starving by Monday. Friday and Saturday I was okay with my eating by Monday I felt as if I was dying. It was then that I realized that I was not accounting for the breastfeeding I was doing on top of the other calories I was eating and the exercise I was doing.

It has been a week of trial and error.

By Sunday I had blisters but I pushed through it. By Monday they got covered in bandaids and I pushed through.

I am doing okay. I need some different shoes but I am doing okay overall.

I am excited to be on this journey of health. I feel good about myself!
