Exceeded my Goal!! Woohoo!!

I started the Wellness Center last Tuesday and I went everytime I was suppose to!! :) I have really enjoyed getting back into weight training and just exercise in general.. I am loving how it makes me feel and the level of energy I now have. I also experienced a "miracle" if you would like to call it that.. well, actually two miracles.. One being that my whole mindset on my weightloss has completely changed, in the greatest way possible! Before, I was wanting this weight off overnight and was almost willing to do anything to get it off that quick too.. but last week its as if God met me while I slept and when I woke up I no longer needed or wanted that. Yes, I still want to lose this weight and be the healthiest I can be but I now realize that its ok if I only lose the healthy 2 lbs a week to get there. If I eat how I know I am suppose to eat and workout the weight IS going to come off.. I am just enjoying being active again! Yay! My next miracle came yesterday.. let me back  track a little.. Saturday I went to workout and decided to hop on the treadmill.. Until then I had not been able to jog a full lap (1/4 mile) but I made it the whole lap Saturday and I was sooo excited. To many people this is not a lot but to me it was sooo much!! So now to yesterday.. apparently I have found my perfect speed and finally got my breathing down because I, Denise Dearman, jogged 1.5 mi without stopping!!!! This is HUGE for me!! I felt like I could conquer the whole world!! I have reached a new milestone that I never new I would ever reach! It felt like a million bucks! Now, I am loving to run.. I've found it quite addictive and couldn't wait til today when I could do it again and push myself even farther! I am so happy and excited with how it seems my life is changing for the better and I am at peace with it all. I can't wait til one day all the hard work and dedication pays off and I am who I know I can be! Watch out world! :)
