Little FAT Me

I work full time and I barely have time to breathe. In 2005 hurricane Katrina rearranged my life, since then I have gained roughly 80-90 pounds. I believe that it started in depression and became an addiction. I have started and failed many diets and then decided that MAYBE if I combine diet and exercise with blogging and shopping I might be able to find success. This is the story of 2010 and my struggle to rise above addiction, pain, depression and fat.

The road to MY PERSONAL goal BMI/weight!

What is a 5K?

I think to be ready in April I have to have a clear picture of what I am working towards. So a 5K is 5 kilometers or 3.1 miles. At this point my best “run” has been at a 13 minute mile pace for 20 minutes. Roughly 1.5 miles ran consistantly, but that was on a treadmill. I have NO idea what I am capable of outside in the real world. I have decided to spend the rest of December & January attempting to have myself run 3.1 miles. In February I will be adding and incline to stimulate outdoor running. In March I am taking this thing to the park to run laps in the real world and focusing my treadmill training on speed. April – well, that is when I try. My only actual goal is to finish, I don’t care what time or how I do it – just FINISH.

    Wow! Good for you. How exciting. I doubt finishing will be an issue for you. Can't wait to find out how you will do.
