Almost There

So today I ran 14 minutes of my run 30 walk 30 sec. workout routine. I'm suppose to run 15 minutes. I'm almost there :)

My legs hurt really bad, and I think I might need a hip replacement!

How is everyone else doing? I can't wait to see you all this week, and I sure will miss those who wont be there.

Love ya

Happy Thanksgiving.

Baby Steps

So today I reached a goal of 10 minutes in my running workout. To many this may seem small and insignificant, but to me it's like running a 5K.

I have been doing a running routine for the last two weeks. When I first started I could only walk. Now I can run my 10 minute circuit of walk 30 sec and run 30 sec.

It felt so good to reach this goal. I'm working up to 15 min. of this circuit running. Once I do that for awhile, I'll be able to start my 5K training.

I have so much farther to go, but it's all about TODAY and nothing else.

It sounds silly, but I cried because I was so Happy and kept telling myself that I was worth it. And the spirit told me it was true through the Beautiful sunrise I saw this morning.

I am worth it and I am Beautiful!
Love you all

Gaining Weight!!!

Okay so gaining this much weight while being pregnant has me really worried. I don't feel like I have increased what I eat but it just seems to continually get more and more. I really haven't had time to walk a lot or do my excercises that I wanted to. I am always tired and have no one to push me to do them. I feel really down about myself and worry about post baby and how I'll do during the delivery.

Sorry I am just kind of down right now :(

I have this really cool gadget called the Niki+ipod. It attaches to the input part of the ipod, and then you place a little micro-chip looking thing on your shoe. This is really neat because it tracks your whole work out. Your can look at past workouts and try to improve yourself. It counts calories, distance, time etc. There is also a website that goes along with it. There are coaches and running schedules and other tons of cool stuff you can download on to your ipod.

I'm not sure who in our family has an ipod, but if you do this like Niki-ipod is about $30.00 and is well worth it.

If you get one you can also invite your friends on the web-site and see each others progress. If you don't have an ipod that's alright, I just wanted everyone to know of this cool little bit of technology that is helping me get back in the swing of running.

Love you guys ;)

I have a great smile and perfectly straight teeth! That sure makes me beautiful :)

I would first just like to say thank you Karen for sending that e-mail with the running workout. I have started this last week, and am doing pretty good. My calves and butt hurt, but I'm guessing that's a good thing.

It is really hard for me to wake up in the morning, but I have seen some Beautiful sunrises this last week and have done my house work. These are the small things that make my life run smoother.

It is still hard, but I'm taking one day at a time.

I have Beautiful Eyes.
My father gave me these eyes, and now my son has them too ;)
I am Beautiful.

Love you guys have a great weekend.
