For health reasons my boyfriend’s sister started riding her stationary bike for 30 minutes a day and also made sure to take a walk on her lunch hour. She started watching what she was eating and cooled the takeout and, so far, has managed to drop 60+ pounds!!! I was so jealous that I decided to get myself in gear. I thought if success only required a little effort, then a little effort is what I would put forth. After all I just wanted to feel (read: look) better and at this point I also needed to satiate my competitive appetite! It wasn’t fair that she was strutting around her new svelte body and I was desperately trying to cover myself from collarbone to ankle! So I made up my mind to climb abroad the GET FIT train and started to spread the word that maybe this fitness thing might take less effort then we all thought. Could all of our goals be achievable too?
As it appears this motivation thing is contagious. Since catching the GET FIT bug from my boyfriend’s sister, it would seem that I might be passing it on. I have a friend that has started on her fitness/get healthy routine too and her progress is as follows:
MONDAY
23 minutes on treadmill = 1 mile (1.60900 km), 143 calories burned @ incline 5...WITH A MIGRAINE!!
TUESDAY
40:12 sweatin to the oldies
WEDNESDAY
34 min treadmill - 156 calories burned. Went slow, not feeling the best.
THURSDAY
???
It’s this kind of effort that will have you feeling great and seeing results soon! I’ve decided that no effort is too small and recently read a great quote: If you’re moving, you’re losing. Is there anything more to say???
Keep up the good work!!
