New motivation to Start Jogging again
« on: July 07, 2013, 11:43:48 am »

So my boyfriend, yes that guy friend I talked about about 3 months ago xD

LOL He'll be going to UC Davis and I to UC Irvine. So we've come to the agreement
to work on getting ourselves new bodies.

He's 6ft tall and super skinny while I'm 5'5" and chubby very chubby.

The deal is for him to gain some weight and get abs and for me is to lose some weight and
get a booty.

Well, I guess that will be my motivation. I want to look good for him when i see him in a years time again.

UGHHHH! This is going to be a short Long distance relationship.

But :) I will absolutely work on it.

I would rather walk than jog, it is easier on the body! Changing eating habits can help a lot!

Proud.  Maybe you should start with walking.  Jogging might be too much and you will lose your momentum.  I walk everyday at the State Park and it helps me keep my weight down...along with sensible eating.  Do it for yourself.

Just start out walking if you are feeling "lazy." then start walking faster. then start jogging. Do this gradually and running won't seeming like such a torturing process.

I recommend downloading the Couch to 5k (or 10k) app for your smartphone if you have one. It's a weekly program that alternates jogging and walking over time to help you run greater distances. I went from not being able to run for 30 seconds to being able to run three miles. I'm working on the 10k one now to try to get to 5.

Good luck to you!

At my place of work, they have started up another session of the walking challenge and this time I signed up.  I did not want to do it last year as I was afraid it was going to be too competitive, but it is turning out not to be that bad.
