So my measurements.... I NEVER WANT TO SEE NUMBERS LIKE THESE AGAIN!!!!!
I know I'm still at the top end of my highest weight ever, but I'm still in a mindset that my body can handle what it used to when I was 50 pounds lighter, and it just cannot. I am much slower paced than I was before, and my ankles and knees just dont handle the weight so well when jogging. I definitely am no where near being able to run because the strain on my joints is a bit much. I know it's all this extra weight. But I pushed and did what I could.
I completed the first mission on the Zombie run, and I'm not gonna lie, they say to run throughout the whole thing, but I just can't I walked most of it, and jogged as I could. My body is in no shape to do any running, but I pushed through it and completed my first mission. I get a little confused sometimes though because the app kinda goes silent for periods of time, and from what I'm getting is I'm supposed to be running during those 10 minute silences, but I just can't I tried to do intervals of jogging for as much as i could, then walking to catch my breath, then going back to jogging. I spent more time walking though because my body is waaaay out of shape.
I just keep telling myself today was only the first day, it's going to get easier, but at least I got up and finished it!
The mission itself was about 32 mins. I did it around my neighborhood which is a 2.1 mile walk so in all it took me about 45 mins to complete.
I CANNOT GIVE UP.
Dont give up... you will get to the level of fitness you want. We will get to our goal weight...just need to stick to it.. and it doesn't matter how many starts you have to make.. as long as you keep on going! Remember..however slow you go you are still lapping everybody on the couch! xxx
