Getting the hang of it!!

I currently finished Day 2, Week 2 of Couch to 5k.  This has ended up being a fun challenge for myself.  I have been training on the treadmill and last night I changed it up.  I did my Couch to 5k on the treadmill then joined 3 of my girlfriends for some track time.  I am a week ahead of them on the training schedule...I was worried that I would need an extra week to train.  I was proud of myself last night.  I did both training schedules!!  I NORMALLY HATE TO RUN!! It was fun.  It was waaay more fun to join my friends on the track than having my one woman show on the treadmill.  Now for a little honesty...I love my girlfriends dearly.  They have become very close to me...(we have a special bond..we are the wives of Gabby Johnson...I just made myself laugh on how I made that sound!! ha! )  Anyways, they are all fit skinny and beautiful!!!  I look like a hot mess when working out so I was concerned that I would be the odd one out when I joined them on the track.  Lets just say that didn't happen.  I still looked a hott mess but they were fabulous.  I got a couple of comments on my fb page saying that they were excited that I was joining them that night. (they train M, T, W...I have class on M and T so I am only able to train with them on Wednesday)  It was nice to know that my friends are encouraging!!  I am really looking forward to our 5k that we are all doing in April.  It is going to be fun...yes I just said that running was going to be fun!! 

On another subject...my weight loss.  My goal is to lose 5-7 lbs a week.  Last week I lost....7 LBS!!!! I was soooo freaking excited!!  I can't believe that I have let myself get so unhealthy, but I am enjoying getting back into the swing of things.  My husband even said last night that we was proud of me for becoming a runner.  BECOMING A RUNNER!!!! What??? I guess in a way that is what I am a journey to become...a RUNNER!! ha..  :) 

I have also found a new and FUN alternative to working out at the gym...or in my case and addition to working out at the gym....JUST DANCE 2!!!! It is soooo much fun!!  I did it last night when I got home...HILARIOUS!!!  Donnie and I laughed so hard as I was sweating away just dancing.  He kept saying it looked like I was back at my High School Prom!! ha!  I loved it!! Nothing like a little Criss Cross and Beyonce to get the blood pumping!!
