133.5 lbs

25:30 minutes - 2.02 miles

My playlist started out odd -trying to find some different songs that get me moving fast:
-JayZ - Flip Flop Rock (didn't work for me-had never heard the song before)
-Justin Timberlake - My Love (too slow)
-Nelly Furtado - Say It Right (same thing - too slow - but would be good to warm up to)
-Black Eyed Peas - Boom Boom Pow (decided to back to what works for me)
-Black Eyed Peas - Bringin' it Back
-Black Eyed Peas - Imma Be (ended here but this is the song that gets me up to 6.5 miles an hour and wasn't good to end on and had to walk for an extra minute around the house so I didn't puke!)

Before running today I started to ask myself, "Do I have time to run?"  Then I realized that I've been asking myself all the wrong questions before working out.  I shouldn't be asking myself "Do I have time?"  or "Do I feel like it?" or "Is there something else I need to get done?"   I need to be asking myself, "Do I want my clothes to fit good?"  and "Do I want to be healthy?" and "Do I want to be able to confidently wear this dress?"  Because the answer to all of those last questions is an echoing YES!!!

And, by-the-way, I need to start asking myself those same questions when I think about what I'm going to put in my mouth too!

I Gotta Feelin'

11/22/2010

Got on the treadmill only one other time between this post and the last.

134 lbs.
20:57 minutes on treadmill 1.75 miles
20:00 minute mark had gone 1.7 miles
Same four songs on playlist except omit Brett Dennen and replace with Train Calling All Angels

Goal is to lose a pound each week between now and end of the year bringing me to my original pre-pregnancy weight (9 years ago) to 128 lbs..

It can be done!  Then I'll only have 8 pounds until I reach my BIG goal of 120 pounds!

Things gotta change.
