Sometimes I just don't know what comes over me. I am 50 lbs overweight and yesterday I signed up for Team In Training. This means that in 4 short months I will be attempting to run a 1/2 marathon! Really? Not only that, but I have to get $1,500 in pledges for LSS prior to the event. It is a great program and I am really excited to be doing this, but talk about pressure!
I have a kickoff thing to go to on Saturday then. Then next week I guess I will start running again. I haven't done any running in a few years. When I ran before I did the Turkey Trot and ran the entire time. This year, I did the Turkey Trot and didn't quite run the whole time. In fact, I would say I ran about 30% of the time. The main reason for deciding to do this in the first place is that I must lose weight and I lost weight successfully once before when I was running. So, I guess we will see what happens. I refuse to state my weight on this blog. But if you want to keep up you can just do so by keeping an eye on my weight lost and the weight to go at the bottom of each entry.
I actually started the weight loss 2 and 1/2 weeks ago when I began a body cleanse. It has gone pretty well so far. I have lost a total of 11 lbs so far. I was hoping to lose a little more on the cleanse. But I haven't been working out the way I was supposed to, so I guess for the effort I have put in, it has gone pretty well.
Well, I don't want to bore myself or the one other person who may read this, so I will end it for tonight.
Weight Lost: 11 lbs
Weight to Go: 39 lbs
