First NSV

I was able to JOG a quarter of a mile. I was sooooooooo excited to jog. I have never jogged since being fat. I was so proud of myself. I end up walking a little bit over 2.5 miles. When I got home it was the best sleep I had ever had.:notagree I want to see if I can jog a quarter every other day for a month and then move to jogging 1/2 a mile.:clap2:

Best of luck Jay!!! I am just going to stick to walking up to Thompson and back and riding my bike. Jogging has never really appealed to me. I hope it is your magic bullet to get you below that 200 goal!

Wow, that's awesome! Jogging is very difficult for me - I don't think I breathe right. I immediately get a stitch in my side if I try.

Keep up the good work!! Pretty soon you'll be running a marathon!!

:first:

Way to go ...what a great NSV

Awesome! I hate jogging so I think it's an NSV in itself that you motivated yourself to jog, and then you get another NSV for actually being able to job!

So, 2 gold stars for you my friend!

Woot! that's wonderful! I remember the first time I was able to run for the bus, a full block, without even thinking about it, I just ran for it.

Woot! way to go! and keep up the good work.

Well hell I don't know where this comment fits in but I have GOT to tell somebody.

Okay here goes.........

Today for the first time in years and years and years I discovered while at work (in the lunch room) that........ get this..........."I can cross my legs again" I was so shocked that I had instinctually even attempted it. Just the attempt was amazing..... here i was trying to keep a conversation going, trying to be cool while all the time I wanted to jump up and tell the world. Wow what a day ! yahoooooooo

I just had to jump in and so OMG I had the exact same experience last week. Only I did jump up and tell one of my co-workers (she has been a big support for me)

Way to go!

Jaygirld: wow.. congrats on jogging! I used to be able to do that, actually, it is how I quit smoking. I used to keep running until I didn't want to smoke !!!!

Now, my boobs would knock me out..... LOL

CONGRATS TO BOTH OF YOU!!!:clap2:
