There have been lots of times in the past few weeks where I just wanted to give up... Give up because this is too hard... give up because I'm not seeing any changes on the scale... give up because I'm tired and impatient.
I know there will be plenty more of those times but I just have to push through it. I can slowly tell that I'm getting better at running. I'm a little less out of breath when I run. My recovery intervals (when I'm walking) are much shorter and I can catch my breath faster. I can run longer distances (though not a whole mile yet - it's coming). It's really hard to notice these things when you are running... but after you do it and look back you can tell that all this training is slowly but surely working. It's a good feeling.
I am in a plateau with weight loss and it has been driving me nuts for the past 2 months... but I haven't done anything to change my eating habits. I need to break through this plateau so that I can have the weight loss that goes along with my increasing fitness level. I am going to sit down this weekend and come up with a plan of action on cracking through this barrier! :)
