Fresh start

Hi everyone,
I have had a set back over the last few weeks/couple of months which resulted in my losing heart and motivation.
The weight has been very difficult to shift and I have blamed Tamoxifen, it might be a factor but my diet has slipped back to pre GHF.
Today has been a turning point. I decided to return to Aikido and couldn't fasten my jacket as I have gone up a size!!! That's it -- I am determined to return to the martial arts and the sooner I return to a healthy weight the better. So I've asked Chad if I can re-enter the fitness contest, booked an appointment to see a community nurse about weight/bloods etc. and I start afresh tomorrow.

this week's goals

beccajbaldwin's picture

so, last week's goals ended up being a complete bust unfortunately. I stupidly got a really bad sunburn last weekend, which ended up making any fitness activities impossible. So I'm not going to even talk about last week :)

Moving on...

This week's goals!!

1) Complete Phase 2 Week 3 - 3 days
2) 2 days of couch to 5k week 4
3) Saturday is my first 5k run! I'm pumped.. Even though I can't really run a 5k yet, we are going to go and run/walk.. pretty much a normal c25k session, but with a crowd :) The 5k is only a couple blocks away from where we live, so I thought it would be a lot of fun to use that as my first real run! Once I finally graduate couch to 5k, I am going to hopefully sign up for a 5k run once every couple months to keep me motivated, and keep working my way up from there. I want to be a runner!
