Last day of the month...

Today is my brothers 25th birthday. I don't know where time has gone. I feel so old saying my brothers are 25 and 11- people generally tend to think the 11 year old is mine. Buuuuuuuuuut he's not. Anyhoo- I'm trying to avoid cake and junk. lol

Today I'm taking my measurements to see where I am starting at on this 1 month journey of fitness/exercise. I'm not going to post them until the end of the month when I have my comparison results. So for now, I'll write them down and keep them in a spot for safe keeping and later posting.

I don't care if I don't feel the greatest... I AM going to start my c25k app today. I think the first day is only a 32 minute workout and consists of mostly walking, so I am going to get up and get myself going with this app. I think I read all the reviews posted for it, and everyone loved it, and said that once you get past the initial stages you get really involved in the story line, and feel guilty if you skip a workout and don't keep up with the story, so I am very interested in seeing how true this is for me.

I read all the things about statistics and how long it will take to make and break a habit, and it looks as though the happy medium is somewhere around 21 days. So THREE weeks. It seems like such a long time, but in actuality those 3 weeks will fly by like they never even came. So, that was a major reason why I am forcing myself to commit to the 30 days because every 4 days is a rest day according to these calendars. I want to make changes in my lifestyle and I WANT to see RESULTS.... I just have to get together the energy and will power. I am already saying I have to and NEED to do this, my mind is there, but I just need to get over other things causing my problems in my life and FORCE myself to get through. It's always the hardest in the beginning. And this 10 pound loss from July is some motivation, but not enough on its own. SO OFF I GO.... to do what I need to do. :)
