The Journey

Mar 03, 2010

Today is a good day.  It is only a good day because I have decided it is going to be.  I have been off track the past 2 weeks and it showed up on the scale today.  I have gained 1 pound . 

In the past this would have sent me into a total tail spin becuase I would have allowed it to do so.  Today, however, I made a different choice.  I analyzed what I have been eating and put it all into perspective.  I know how and why I contributed to my weight gain. (birthday cake & ice cream, splurging too much, making excuses)
  I knew last week that the amount of food I was able to eat was beginning to increase so I was proactive and scheduled my first lapband fill.  I am having my fill done tomorrow at 2pm.  

I am excited about having the fill because I have already gotten my exercise routine started.  I have been walking 3-4 days a week.  I am up to walking 2.5 miles now.  I am going to begin adding some cross-training in a couple of times a week.  This is the recomended training scedule for the 40 week program through Marathon Makeover.  I will be walking a half marathon on June 12, 2010.  Accomplishing this goal is what gives me the motivation to keep moving forward on days like today!

Today is a cross-training day and I will be doing Yoga this evening!  I'm pumped!!
