Day 7 of My Journey- 3/21/2010
Well, I have successfully completed my first week. I haven't felt this proud of myself in such a long time. Thanks to Adam, Bo, and all the rest of you that have encouraged me along the way. I feel so much stronger already (both mentally and physically). I went to the gym this afternoon for one hour of cardio on the elliptical machine. I finally found a way to keep my heart rate at my target of 146. I used the manual program rather than the fat burning program and this did the trick. I completed the entire hour at my target heartrate. I burned 694 calories and my distance was 3.65 miles. On to week 2!

I am excited for you. I just, today told myself (at the age of 36 and 217 pounds) that in one year we (me and the voices in my head) were going to do a 1/2 marathon. I am thinking these voices are gonna be the death of me wither way - by wither running or eating. I'm tired of eating so I thought I'd try running. I emailed Adam on FB hoping to hear back from him on a good place to start. I'm sure the impact of the weight will hurt the 1st few days. How are you feeling body wise?
I have to admit that the first two days were pretty rough with lots of soreness, but after that it hasn't been too bad. The workouts are very challenging and I still get sore but nothing like the first two days. Thanks for following me and feel free to ask any other questions. I hope I can be of help to you. Take Care.
Congrats on completely your first week. I have just started working out and changing my life style to becoming a new me. I have to admit I'm jealous that you are able to have Adam on your side, I live in Canada and so wish that I was in NC to have Adam's help.
I will be sure to follow you and watch you change !
Thanks for visiting my blog and following my story. I actually live in Ohio, so I have never met Adam in person. He offers online personal training and nutrition services. So, the fact that you live in Canada wouldn't matter! Just thought I would let you know in case you wanted to consider the online services.
