A Year ago today, I started my weight loss journey. I took it slow, but it was steady. Over the past year I lost 37 pounds and hope to loose that and more this year. I was always and athletic person and was always on the go. Over the years work, school, friends and family all became more important and I lost the drive to get out and move. The drive inside me is back, now I just need to let it shine. I have set new goals for myself.
Back in highschool I used to run daily with a neighbor of mine and we ran probably close to 2-3 miles each night. This year I have decided to make it my goal to run a 5K. I need to get past the "I can't do it anymore" or the feeling of "what if". I know deep down I can do it, it will just take time.
I think my issue over the past few years is due to everying always came easy to me when I was heathly and athletic. Now that I am not, it isn't easy and trying to overcome that is plain and simple - hard.
Here is what I looked like 1 year ago when I started this journey. I don't ever want to be this big again.
