Couch 25K - What Little Change Has Made Difference?

I realize that every one is not exercising regularly   (been there for a long time!) and those that are exercising are doing the activity of their choice.

My posts are to share my progress moving from the couch and to learn from your success and struggles in trying to be more active.

I completed week 5 day 3 today and the scale is moving down rather nicely now. It has not been easy! I HATE exercising and I miss my couch!  I think it is going to cheat on me!

Doing the couch 25k is a BIG change for me, but we can make changes that are small that have a big impact on making us more healthier.

For instance, I take the stairs at work now all the time. I work on the 2nd floor and need to go to the 4th and 8th floor at least once a day.  My rule is unless I have equip on a hand cart, the stairs it is.
So tell me what you have changed that has helped you.   It may help someone else!

I think what has helped me the most is learning to be accountable to myself.
Moving sorta slow this morning just enjoying the new baby and feeding her every two hours.
I did get up early and have walked the dogs and got the trash to the road.
Also in just a few after feeding Sam I will be going for day 3 of week 4 tomorrow I will be working and just standing and cooking for so many hours it really burns more calories than you would think.
One thing I reflect on alot is how hard just moving was for me when I was SMo I do not want to forgeth how I felt then.
If ya get right down to it I hated being SMO what kind of life did I have then well nothing compared to what can do now.
Having a home gym works great for me.

Enjoy feeding the baby!

When one of our birds had some babies, all of them did not survive. One of the 2 that survived, she absolutely refused to feed him, so my hubby and i feed him. That was wild! He would squaw****il his feeding ouch was so full it looked like it would bust! Then he was so full he could not move!

We enjoyed feeding him until he was able to eat on his own and now he is one of the most vocal boys we have!

Thanks for sharing what has helped you. I am learning to be accountable to me as well. Seems 'me' was never important enough, but I am now!

Hope you have a good day at work tomorrow!
