I made it through the 5K. I did okay, well pretty slow actually but I made it through. I was very proud of myself for doing it and I have continued to work out and try to take myself to the next level. Oh what is the next level you ask? Well... I signed up for a half marathon in April.
I know, I know you are thinking to yourself, "really?" Well I needed something else to work towards, a goal if you will. This is my new goal. I am proud of the progress I have made thus far. I feel good about it. I may not be able to run the whole thing but I will finish. Finishing is my goal. 13.1 miles I think is what a half marathon is, well around there anyhow.
I don't think many read this so I have no qualms posting this on here. I feel dumb when people ask me though and end up saying "I don't know." When I moved to T-town i was at a whopping 255 and about a week ago when I weighed in and did measurements I was at 226. My goal weight is 180. I will get there eventually. I want to make a lifestyle change as well as a physical change so I don't mind it coming off slowly.
It is about finding the best possible me.
Also, I go back and fourth with this guy from F-town. It is not a healthy relationship at all and today I told him so. It made me feel good to take a stand for myself and not let myself be manipulated. While talking to him I kept telling myself to stand my ground and not be weak. I was strong and it was so empowering!
I will be off to the gym soon and maybe I will meet the man of my dreams, one who treats me wonderfully and loves me for me. If not, I am okay with that too!
The Quest for Happiness continues....but this was a great day in the search!
