Well, I joined this board over a year ago, but I can honestly say that it wasn't until the beginning of this year that I became serious about losing this weight and getting healthier. I have been excersing 6 days a week for 1 hour each day (6 hours per week) mixing in my stregth training and cardio. I was on the treadmill yesterday and I got to about 45 minutes (just after I finished my interval runs) and I heard two distinct different things in my head...I believe it was the fat girl and the skinny girl inside my head...I heard one voice saying, "You finished the intervals...that's enough, you can stop now", I then heard another voice saying, "that's what got you into this mess! Finish your last 15 minutes and stop complaining!!" It made me laugh and I listened to the skinny girl as I have started now calling her.
I guess my point in saying this was, even though I get tired, and even when it seems like 15 minutes is just gonna kill me, it doesn't...I can do this, I am in control of this body not vice versa and I AM NOT giving up!
Willow,
Why aren't you adding your minutes onto the exercise thread? We can use all the help we can get to make this the best year ever.
It's a huge help when you are contributing to something bigger than yourself (Oh...what a bad pun)
Congrats on embracing the new life!! Hope to see you around often!!
