Biggest Loser: Oh My, What a eye opener!

I like to watch TV using tivo, so needless to say I didn't watch BL til this morning. WOW, the show and all those brave souls are so inspirational! Bob and Jillian terrify me. I'm going to think of them in my face during my workouts, so I can push myself a bit further each time!

Thirty minutes into the show, when they first started working out Bob said, " This is where it all begins ladies and gentlemen, just think watching the show on your sofas, eating your chips saying I can do that, I can do that- well you're doing it now." Yes, I am Bob....Yes, I am!

You all won't believe what I did after he said that, I picked myself up and put my workout clothes on and started walking in place (I run for 60 sec and walk for 5 min.). Yes, I did! I've NEVER done that, I've often thought of it but I've never actually done it. I ended up walking for 1 hour!

I've only seen one BL from start to finish, I think it was too much like looking in the mirror and not ready to do anything about it. When they showed the images of what their heart, liver and lungs looked like, I just couldn't believe my eyes! I was truly mortified and grateful all at the same time. I knew that mine look the same but I also knew, I had already started on my journey of good health.

Meals went well today. I feel. I'm getting in the groove of this. Lots of planning, right now I'm terrified if I don't plan I'll make a miss step. I hoping that, that fear will despite as I continue with my journey.

If you can believe it, I still did my evening workout! Twice in one day! What is happening to me? I have to say, that I really love it! I workout on this track that is the shape of a figure 8, as I'm walking/running it reminds me that the journey to good health is going to take me to an infinite number of places Figuratively and Literally!

Another Great day!

xoxo,
Ingie
