Guess what else I've been doing?

I've been doing this since April 1...but didn't really want to put it on my blog in case I quit...but I haven't! I've been getting up early 3 mornings a week to meet a bunch of ladies for aerobics (that's why in my last post I said sleep in SOME days of the week! But in the summer we don't get together at 5:20, we push it back to 5:45...SLEEP IN???? Not in my book!). Actually we've been doing a program called P90X (or something like that). There are infomercials all over the place for this program...the infomercial makes it seem like some miracle. It's been great, but not miraculous! :o) I have actually gained some weight, but my body is changing! My clothes are a BIT looser and my muscles are really beginning to show signs of being toned! I'm so excited. My friend told me that others who have joined them have gained weight in the beginning due to muscle formation, but then the weight starts dropping off..I can't wait for that part!!!

LONG time, NO see...

Guess what...I made a little trip downstairs this morning and tried to get to know my treadmill again! I only walked 1 1/2 mile because I needed to get the kiddos up and ready for school. Now, do I have it in me for 2 days in a row?? Guess I'd better get to bed so I have a chance of getting up early again!

I jogged!!!!

I am so excited...I just just have to tell you...I JOGGED this morning! I went for my usual walk on the treadmill and realized that walking at 3.2 mph with an incline, my heartrate was up, but my breathing was normal, not even a bit strained. So, after 2 miles, I thought I'd kick it up a notch. I went up to 4.2 mph, and started jogging. About 2 seconds later I thought to myself "WHAT ARE YOU DOING??? YOU ARE GOING TO KILL YOURSELF!" But, I lived. I jogged 1/4 mile, then slowed down and finished my walk. Ok, I know it's not that far, but HOLY COW, I haven't jogged on purpose for years, if ever! That will now be my new goal, to jog at least 1/4 mile, and hopefully increase that distance! I'm just so excited! I guess all this walking is doing something, even if the weight isn't coming off like I'd like.
Thanks for listening/reading...I just HAD to share! :o)
