This is what I looked like during my couch to 5k run / walk this morning. I'm not sure what happen but it went down something like this:
I got up this morning at 7am ( a little cranky from watching the season premier of LOST) and promptly got on the computer. The excuse I used this morning was that my sweats and favorite hoodie needed to go through the dryer before I could do any sort of workout. That gave me at least 40 minutes of facebook time. The second I got on the computer I could feel the wheels turning on how to talk myself out of doing the day's c25k.
The dryer went off 40 minutes later and there I am still in the chair.
An hour after I get up (and 20 minutes after the dryer let me know it was time) I've finally gotten dressed and decided to do my run/walk on the treadmill because of the rain. 5 minute warm up goes well. First 60 / 90 interval goes well. Second interval goes fine but then I started to get hella emotional. My legs hurt, I'm sweating, and I just want to be back in bed. I'm mad at myself for weighing 249 lbs and finding it hard to accept that a 60 second jog is difficult task for me.
Interval 3 and 4 I cry like a baby ( trying to be quiet because my husband is still sleeping ). Interval 5 I get back to business. I'm still emotional but now I just want to prove to myself I can do this. I may be 249 pounds today but today is just 24 hours.
Dinner tonight is a foot long black forest ham from subway. I love subway and will enjoy every bite.

you can sustain 1 minute of jogging? That's way more than I can. I wouldn't even attempt to jog right now. So consider yourself ahead of me there. Keep pushing, keep striving! Just think about me when ever you're running or walking and every step more that you make say to yourself that at least I'm capable of doing more than Jimmy.

Hey how did you get my baby photo... HA HA... I too had SubWay for dinner! I got the nerve up to ask them to gut the bun for me
:)
I am proud of you for sticking to the run/walk! Good for you!
And 249 is great! You are still under 250!!!! Our bodies do crazy things and sometimes we don't know why that number changed or isn't changing.... Before you know it you will be 245!
