that makes you want to get your life together. Follow me and my journey to lose weight, get healthy, be happy, and feel good in my thirty year old skin.
2 Runs
I did my first outside run of the spring yesterday and it felt great! It was a short one (2.5K) and was a run/walk but it still felt good to get outside. It was raining today so I did a 2 mile treadmill run and I was so proud of myself for running for a mile straight! Making progress! :)

The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but your thoughts about it.

Muscles!
It felt really good getting back to Body Pump today. As important as running will be in training for the 5K I know I need to make room for strength training and Pump specifically. I always feel so strong and confident when I’m done! Let’s just hope I still feel this way after the muscle soreness sets in. ;)

Cheater cheater, pumpkin eater
Well, spinach dip eater and gin drinker actually. I may have cheated on my diet yesterday. I feel a little guilty.
Shhh!
I ran (and when I say ran I mean half ran, half walked) 5km this afternoon. It seems hard to believe that I’ll be running the 5k in June, a month and a half away, in front of a bunch of people. I have to keep reminding myself that I will make a lot of progress by then. I can do it!
Leaving the sidelines
I’ve been viewing some of my favourite tumblr blogs from the sidelines lately. I started up my blog with the best of intentions. I had seen how other people’s fitness/weight loss blogs seemed to really help them and I saw it as a way of being part of a community and getting support from other people (even if they were strangers in real life). There are a few things that stopped me from posting… I was feeling bad about myself because I was failing (in my eyes) and didn’t want to post that publicly. The other thing is pressure. In my head I was putting pressure on myself to try to be entertaining and/or witty. Why? I don’t know. I’m going to use this blog for what I originally intended. I’ll chronicle my struggle to lose weight and be happy (the latter being the major goal). It feels good to get my thoughts out at times. Chances are good that no one will ever read this. That’s okay. I’ll have this blog to look back on and see how much I’ve grown.

I think that a lot of times we confuse “can’t” with “don’t care enough to try.”
