They aren't going to return to that point every single day. And, as you said, it's amazing how quickly one improves. If in 3 weeks she is back up to a mile and a half, it's all the same.
I agree with Shmead!! If it's THAT horrific there's no way you're going to stick with it long enough for it to become easier. Remember, your starting weight is pretty high so you can't KILL yourself right off the bat!!
i was 323 and a BLOCK was horrifying enough LOL I did that stupid fK*(&*&&*^& block every day for 2 weeks and it still wasn't 'easy' but i was breathing a bit easier, then went to 2 blocks and 3 and worked my way up. I like a challenge too, but if it's THAT insane, how can you look forward to it and do it every single day??
I'm a survivor of the "all or nothing" mentality, kicking that little b**tch to the curb saved my life
What's with my potty mouth today??? geeez
When all is said and done, exercising is like going to the dentist for me - i hate it, but i know it's good for me. I DO NOT LOVE IT
