June 24th: Went for a walk this morning while it was still cool out...40 minutes around my neighborhood. This was the third walk this week...Sunday Jen and I took a 40 minute walk from her house to Panera. Monday I decided to walk to my parent's house which took about 30 minutes! My plan is to keep up with the walking..right now outside because the weather is so great!!

June 7, 2010: Jen and I went for a walk this evening...around 25-30 minutes (we need to keep track of time better!). I ran for about 1/2 of a block and was dragging toward the end of it. I know that if I just keep it up, I will continue to get stronger and be able to run longer!
We went to a farmers market this weekend and got some great tomatoes..I can't wait until there is more produce available!
I will keep checking in and continue to work hard toward my goals!

This is the start....
June 1st: Today is the start...the start to a healthier me...the start to a happier me...the start to the rest of my life. I am ready to start living my life and have the goal of running a 10k with my sister next spring. RUN?!?! Yes...I said run! I am no where near being able to run that far right now, but am going to train to be able to run that distance by the spring and then hopefully the Denver Rock and Roll Marathon (half) next fall.
I started today with a 36 minute walk with my sister to Target, with a 20-30 second jog thrown in. I figure if I just keep adding time to the run (jog) part, I will be able to eventually run the whole part...a little at a time!! I need to keep up with the exercise and also keep up with eating healthy. I am trying to eat a (mostly) clean diet and will continue on that journey as well.
I need to go the slow and steady route to do this and know it will be a process. I have at least 100 pounds to lose (sometimes it seems impossible), and am hoping this blog will help keep me on track to doing just that! I am going out of town in September and hope to be a couple sizes smaller than I am right now...I'll keep you posted!! My "before" pictures will be posted soon!!
