It's time to get started.

I was walking, couldn't hold still, it was getting darker by the minute so it's blurry but I don't care. It shows how I feel lately. Out of focus.
I've started working out because I'm sick of being stuck in the house because of the weather. Today it went from chilly to warm but rainy--but it was only a light drizzle so I leashed up the dogs and we took another walk--we took one yesterday when I found the dead dog.
They need to get out of the house more than I do. Barring snow, this will be a habit now that I get home when it's still light out. I'm also exercising aside from walking, cutting back on the snacking habit I've developed again, and really focusing on getting my upper body in shape because that's the biggest problem--I carry almost all of my excess weigh in my stomach--bad bad bad. I feel the burn but I work through it knowing that honestly, it feels good to get sweaty and my heart pumping and feeling stronger. It's also a helluva lot easier to exercise now that I've already shed 50 pounds.
I want to really push myself and lose a lot of weight by my birthday--three months away which might as well be tomorrow considering how fast time flies. My birthday gift for myself? HOTNESS.

"I wonder if you wanted me like I wanted you. It's a lonely truth that I can't change you. And you sure can't change me..."

Trivia :-

-On average, every minute of walking can extend your life by 1.5 to 2 minutes. That's about a 2 for 1 trade-off!

-Walking an extra 20 minutes each day will burn off 7 pounds of body fat per year.

-To burn off 1 plain M&M candy, you need to walk the full length of a football field. Think about that next time you dip your hand into a candy bowl at someone's office!

-Longer, moderately-paced daily walks (40 minutes at 60% to 65% maximum heart rate) are best for losing weight.

-Shorter, faster walks (20-25 minutes at 75% to 85% maximum heart rate) are best for conditioning your heart and lungs.

A dog is an ideal workout partner: always supportive, happy to go for a walk and never judgmental. The human-companion animal bond is a great way to help you and your dog lose weight or stay fit. When people and dogs exercise together, fitness and health happen on both ends of the leash. As the obesity epidemic spreads, 70% of Americans and 50% of dogs are overweight or obese, resulting in staggering health care costs and suffering. The causes, consequences, and treatment for overweight and obesity are strikingly similar in people and dogs. Walk a Hound, Lose a Pound, written by an expert veterinary surgeon and a leading nurse researcher, helps you move from a food-centered relationship with dogs, to an exercise-centered relationship. Even better, you don’t have to own a dog! The book gives several creative suggestions to exercise or walk a dog even if you do not or cannot have one. This volume is designed for dog lovers, dog owners and families. Based on the latest scientific findings, it will also help professionals (including physicians, veterinarians, and physical therapists) fight obesity and promote fitness in both people and pets. Dog-walking programs can easily be implemented in neighborhoods, parks, workplaces, animal shelters, hospitals, retirement homes and obesity clinics, and this book shows you how to establish them. In nearly every health care profession, practitioners are teaching human patients and dog owners on a daily basis about the risks of obesity. Never has there been a more compelling time for innovative approaches to increasing physical activity, reforming sedentary lifestyles, and enhancing fitness. Walk a Hound, Lose a Pound provides specific strategies for people and dogs to exercise together, lose weight together, and have fun in the process.
