We're still going!!! When I set my goal of running for 20 minutes I was a little skeptical if I could do it or not; but I was determined to try so I set myself on a rigorous schedule of running. I started with 3 minutes walk 1 minute run for 20 minutes, every day I increased it with 30 seconds of running. On Saturday I was up to 3 minutes running and 1 minute walking for 20 minutes. Monday I decided that now that I was up to 15 minutes total running (1.25 miles) I would see how much I could run without stopping to walk. I got to 10 minutes before I had to walk. I then walked for one minute then jogged for 5 then walked for one and jogged for 2 and walked for a final minute, 17 MINUTES TOTAL!! woo hoo! I'm going to try and increase it one minute a day until I get to 20 (jogging every other day).

Seriously if I can do this, you guys can reach your goals too!!!

Well the good news is last week is over and we're back on the ball again. Way to go guys!!!

Update on my goal today I will be running 10 minutes out of 20. I started with 5 on Monday, so by next week if all goes as planned I will be up to 20 minutes!!

Any updates on your goals??

Good luck this week, I'm so happy we're doing this together!

OK Sorry this has taken me a while, it's been busy. I'm pretty sure my scale at home is weighing 10 pounds light so I'm going to adjust my weight on this post.

On other news, the Superstore that has my gym above it got temporarily shut down because of a mice infestation so the gym is out of commission for a bit.

GOOD LUCK!

Ok Good job mom!!!!!!! Woo hoo.

I have an idea, it's easy to just come to this site and see your "weight loss" but it's gonna get hard to keep going so I think we need to set some personal goals and share them so we can keep each other accountable. You can post them in comments or e-mail me and I'll post them. It needs to be a goal that is measurable and not directly weight loss goals. For example your goal cannot be I want to lose 10 lbs, maybe you want to eat healthy for one week, or you want to be able to walk 1 mile in 20 minutes etc. So along with weigh in's we'll also have check in's regarding our goals.

Get it??
