It's all in my mind

@ Journey : Thank you so much for the kind words! I only hope that my arms getting bigger is my developing giant "guns" :) This body bugg sounds very interesting! So it's just like a watch that records how many calories you burn...neat! Does it do other things? Like heart rate, etc?

I don't know I have it just set for calories burned but it is amazing and really gets you in tune with the reality of your metabolism. You can read books but nothing drills it in like seeing it first had for yourself. I'm at 3216 calories burned today since midnight and it is 7:24pm. Very powerful tool. Keep up the good work Tik.
 
Wow! That's a fantastic count!! Good for you :)

I might have to invest- because you're right- there's nothing like seeing it to believe it! :)
 
Hey Tik,

Looks like you've found some great support! You have a little cheering section behind you now! Have you tried the rowing machine yet? How'd it go?

Hi PLB!

I actually started the "couch to 5k" running program on Sat!! And am on day 3 so far!! While it's a bit challenging- I was able to complete it!!!! Day one I did it at 5, but yesterday I did it at 6!!! I was so proud!!

I incorporated the rowing machine in as well- and LOVED it!! (did you know they have a cute little game you can play on it!!!!?)

I am lucky to have found all these great people who are supporting me! I'll admit- I'm not sure I would be this motivated and confident that I could complete my goals if it were for everyone here!! :) :)

Hey Tik,

That's awesome! The couch to 5k program and others like it are a great way to gradually get into running! It can also keep you encouraged & motivated because you're striving for achievable times/distances, rather than just trying to do 5k all of a sudden.

I'm glad you liked the rowing machine and no, I didn't know there was a game you can play on it... it sounds like the one at your gym is more advanced than the ones I've used!

I'm glad you feel motivated! You came to the right place!
