Smile Happy, Happy, Happy!!!

I can't express the tremendous amount of JOY that I am feeling right now! I just want to share it with the WORLD!
This gal just completed her second TWO MILE walk on the tredmill today! According to the tredmill's calculations that is a 900 calories burned!
I NEVER in a million years would have thought that I could do this. I feel that I owe a ton of thanks to the ladies of 3FC, who have given me such supportive comments. Just knowing that there are women out there who are struggling, like me, makes weight loss not as daunting.

Thanks gals! I'm feeling the burn this morning but I'm still on top of the world.
On another note, I have my first weigh in today at my weight loss center. I haven't weighed myself since I started last Tuesday and I am NERVOUS!

I wanted to say a huge congrats! Not to rain on your parade, but I want you to know that treadmill calories counts tend to be WAYYYYY high, so I would caution you not to eat back close to those amount of calories, Nevertheless, great achievement!!

2 miles is awesome!!! Pretty soon it will be second nature to you and 2 miles will seem like nothing to you!

Did you have the incline set real high? Maybe that's how you got the calories burned so high?
