Today I decided to sign up for the Michelle Bridges 12 Week Body Transformation – I first heard of Michelle when a friend liked her page on
Facebook, after visiting her site I was totally inspired! I am really looking
forward to starting the journey and this is blog will be an outlet for me to
measure my progress and discuss the program as well. To sign up I had to spend
money we don’t really have at the moment, but this is something I think it will
really help me with my weight loss, fitness etc. so it is really worth it. I am pumped, I really am excited about it – watch this space!
As I have mentioned before, I have started running, for the
first time in my life. I have been doing it for about ten days straight and I
am really starting to feel that it is getting a little bit easier. I have a
good friend who does it with me, and she has been great, really pushing me in
the right direction. I don’t want to let her down when she asks me is I am
running tonight, so even if I don’t feel like it, I always end up going and
feeling really happy I did it.
I also have been
watching what I eat and staying under my calories – according to My Fitness Pal. I was quite disappointed this morning to hop on the scales and see the
same number I did this time last week. This is so frustrating, especially
because I have been working so hard in the last ten days. I know I shouldn’t
really pay attention to what the scales says, it is just a number but it would
be fantastic to see numbers going down. I have been running, eating better and
generally feeling pretty good. I am going to buy myself a tape measure and
measure myself, I am also hiding the scales so they are not staring at me in
the bathroom, tempting me to weigh myself - I actually would love to hear from anyone in similar situations?
I have also involved people in my life who are really healthy
and cheering for me on my journey, I feel like I can’t let them down and I don’t
want to!
I have two goals: Be able to run 3Ks on November 10
And
Lose about 10kgs until the 17th December – the day I am travelling to New Zealand to visit family and friends who have not seen me in over two years. I already lost 10kgs since leaving, losing another 10 would make it 20kgs! (44lbs)
Can I do it? I think I can.
