Walked Again

I took a 15 min walk today around 2 blocks. It was cold out but it felt pretty good.  My foot is aching a little now.  It may have been a little to much.  I had nothing to do and nowhere to go today.  I get tired of seeing the same walls over and over again so I decided a walk was called for.  It was refreshing actually.  I really want to make this weight loss happen.  I’ve done well on the food side but the exercise part hasn’t been happening due to circumstances beyond my control.  I get tired of sitting here and doing nothing.  I know when I’m able to exercise that I’ll be making excuses not to. I’m real good at that when it comes to exercising.  I have to make myself do it though.  Exercise is crucial to weight loss.  I think it’s good that the food for me started me off on  a good track. I think it’ll push my plateau back which is what I’m hoping for.  We all know that plateaus are inevitable.  It’s going to happen.  I want to lose as much as I can prior to that happening.  I don’t have specific goal times to meet goals.  Bodies don’t know dates.  I just want to lose steadily.  I kow i’ve said this before.  See what boredom does to me…lol!!  I get repetitive. Well, I’m off of here before I hear all of you snoring. LOL!

    Before you know it, you are going to be so busy with work and school, etc., that those walls are going to look good to you, so try and enjoy it. Maybe start a jigsaw puzzle? There are also lots of exercises that you can do at home that don’t involve being on your feet. Maybe incorporate some upper body stuff and give your foot a rest when you need to. Anytime you raise your hands over your head, you are raising your heart rate, so it’s a good way to get in a little cardio while giving the foot a break. It’s great that you are making yourself get out and walk some, but please don’t push it and reinjure your foot.

    I think you are doing an amazing job and your graph is showing the results!

    Huggggggggggggs,

    You’re so cute! We’d never get tired or bored reading your blogs, silly girl LOL~ That’s awesome that you walked today - I know that I need to get out more since I sit at the computer 9 hours a day. Keep up the good work and don’t give up. Your efforts will soon pay off. =)

    Awesome! I’m glad you got to take a walk. It can be so refreshing. Don’t over do it. Any amount of walking is good right now, be proud! Good job on the eating part. Put your mind in the right place and the body will follow suit.

    Hey there. You are absolutely right about the plateaus. That’s what happened to me about two months ago. I was so frustrated with it, that I just decided to get off the diet completely. I still watched what I ate, but without exercise I managed to gain a little bit of weight. Two weeks before Thanksgiving I started again and lost the weight I gained plus a few more. Then I did it again for the holiday. I think all that time off the diet did me good though. I’m hoping! Maybe it kickstart my weightloss again. Thanks for your comments and for being a great buddy. Have a great day!
