Just an update!

Just wanted to give everyone an update on how things are going. It is definitely a daily struggle but I still feel like this is going to be the time where I see it through until the end. I have been exercising consistently. I still want to be doing more but it is so hard to find the time. I am scheduling in when I can and I have been going 3 times a week on average.
My trainer has been awesome, even though I cant walk for 2 days after she trains me. She has been so supportive. She calls or texts regularly to see how I am doing and to keep me motivated. She is great!
One thing I decided to try out doing was the Couch to 5K training program that basically trains you to run a 5k within 9 weeks. I am taking longer to finish. The first week I did for 2 weeks and I just started the second week. I will most likely do the second week twice too. I am surprised at how I can get through it and how I actually enjoy it! It is hard but it gets easier as I go.
I am losing weight every week except 1 where I stayed the same. So far 14 lbs lost and going.
We have made small goals to help. I go to Texas in May to visit my friend Shelley (soooo excited) and I want to have lost 30lbs by then. Also, my 30th birthday is in August and I want to reach the 50lb loss mark by then. Anyways, thats my update!
