On my birthday this year(January) I decided this would be a gift to myself and my future. It is wonderful to be able to wear clothes that I'd pushed to the back of the closest. My weight loss journey is nowhere close to being complete but I'm twenty pounds closer to the end. I have not only joined WW but I have also started running.
I used to ask people why they ran. Did they run because someone was chasing them? My joke was always, I'd prefer to conserve my energy to just fight off the attacker rather then being tired when I am caught. It was my attempt at humor. A way to rationalize why I wasn't running.
Now,I run for me. I run for my future. I run for my health. I do not in anyway enjoy running. In fact, I HATE RUNNING! But sometimes you have to do things you do not like in life. Some people say I will learn to like running. I am not sure if I will enjoy it but I will enjoy the results of running. I will be able to outrun that attacker and not have to worry about them catching me :)
This week I also stopped drinking caffeine. I believe this is harder than running. Lol. My headaches are terrible but I know that is a sign I should've done this a long time ago.
Also, no caffeine and weight loss are things that will help with infertility it won't make it go away but it will help. Plus this is something I can actually do. This way I feel like I'm trying everything.
I hope all those reading this are well. A big thank you to Teresa over at "Where the bleep is our stork" (i have no idea how to link your blog) for helping me to kick start the no caffeine idea. She too is doing the no caffeine thing. Anybody else want to join us?
