Well the great thing about having this brandnew iPod touch is that anywhere I have I have a wifi connection I can write blogs, send emails, checkmy facebook and everything else...it's great :) so yeah I'm currently at the gym riding the bike now as I'm typing this and I gave some big news (well it is for me anyway LOL) I just ran, yes ran, half a mile on the treadmill, without stopping. It's been about 8 years since I've ran that much. You maybe thinking "oh that's not that much." well let me just tell you as an obese person, that half mile kicked my ass.
I had to really push myself and it was so much harder than I'd ever imagined. My stamina is building up but it's still extremely difficult to run for about six minutes without stopping. At the end, after realizing I had just done something that I haven't done since middle school, I got extremely emotional. I literally had to stop running to hide my face so that people wouldn't think I was crazy. It was at that moment that I realized I'm finally taking my life back. It's my life and I'm finally taking charge to get healthy. It feels great. Sure running kills your legs and your lungs are sore but at the same time I know running half a mile means I'm taking my life back. I'm no longer trapped inside almost 300lbs of a prison. It's time to up mygame. I WILL lose 100lbs. I will get healthy. I will take my life back.
