A little change

So here is a little change I have found my initial weight from the very first time I joined Weight Watchers. I weighed in at 435.4 lbs. My running total will reflect that as the starting weight. I am not proud of that number, but am proud of how far I have gone. I know the journey will be a long one but I can face it.

Weigh in tonight I was down 3 pounds, that's the exact 3 pounds I gained the previous week so really no loss. Good thing is though that puts me at 75 lbs down. I want to hit 100 lbs gone by Dec. 31. That's in writing now.

So I have been running for some time now. Gradually increasing my speeds. I try not to run back to back days, so if I ran the day before I usually walk 3.5-4 mph doing inclines on the treadmill. The program I do has you start at 1.5 incline for a minute then 4.5 for minute back down to 1.5 and cycles 5.5, 6.5, 7.8 with one minute between each at 1.5. I do this for 60 minutes. So me getting cocky told my self that I wanted to run 5 mph for 3 minutes during the 6.5, 1.5, 7.8 inclines. Did not happen. I ran the 6.5 for the whole minute then had to back down on the 1.5, but did run 5 mph on 7.8 for the whole minute. I thought I was going to get thrown off but I didn't. After I did that I said no more of that shit for a while, I'll end up on the floor looking at the treadmill. I am also trying to start some weight training, not easy on your own. I can't afford to use a Personal Trainer. I have been searching web sites. Here is a really good one I am going to use http://www.exrx.net/Exercise.html see how it goes. I am going to start out only weight training 3 days a week maybe bump up to 4 some day. I will continue with cardio daily as I can. I am serious about.
