Another Proud Moment!

Well, I hit another first here in my journey, I over-came the lazies and took a big step towards the greater good.  Last night we went out to dinner, I've been very good about my food, making right/correct choices, but not depriving myself of things I want to eat.  Just using moderation and being mindful of my 1200 cal limit.  Anyway, our dinner happened after work, so it was almost 8pm by the time we got home.  On the way home I had resigned myself to starting Week 2, on Tuesday rather than Monday, because it was just going to be too late.  I even went as far as to put my PJ's on, after I got our youngest down, Justin was putting our oldest to bed, I went downstairs and sat down to watch some TV and relax after the day.  I looked at the clock and it was only 8:30.  Without too much deliberation, I got up, went back upstairs, changed into workout clothes and actually did Wk2Day1 of the program.

WOOHOO!  YAY ME!!!  I have to say that a month ago, I would have found some reason not to, or just ignored the inner-voice saying ok fatty get up and go do something.  This time, in addition to being a little nicer to myself, I actually did it.  It sucked!  But the feeling of accomplishment afterwards.........totally didn't diminish the suck factor, but I did it!  And today, I feel that much better knowing that I did it, I didn't let myself down yet again, but stuck to my goal. 

I was in the middle of the run, trying to figure out, how in the hell I would ever get through it and why would I possibly want to?  Asking myself, is it really suppose to hurt this much.  Of course Justin said it does hurt and it doesn't ever stop hurting.  OK again why would you want to do this?  But there is a blog on activerunner.com that has a bunch of posts by people who have started this program this year, and they too are experiencing pains and have a really hard time the first day of a new week and that helps to keep me motivated, knowing that I'm not the only one. 

Tomorrow is Wk2 day2, a little nerve wracking and scary cause I don't want to hurt like that, but I'm going to stick with it, remembering that wk1 day1 was hard, but I got through it.  I just keep to my pace and not rush things.  Also, tomorrow is weigh-in day.  I'll let you know how that goes.
