I never set out to lose 100lbs. That thought never crossed my mind until I reached about 85lbs lost and was like well, better make this an even number!!
In all seriousness though, my only goals when I started my weightloss journey were to (1) get out of my house once a day, and (2) stop running my body into the ground.
My very first workout of this journey consisted of 20 minutes on the elliptical at a small, no frills gym. I thought I was going to die. Surprise, I SURVIVED!!
I made an APPOINTMENT so that I had to come back the next day. Yep, an appointment for a fitness test that I knew I would "flunk". I kept the appointment, and most definitely flunked the test.
I kept coming back. 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 40 minutes, an hours. It took weeks, probably more like MONTHS to workout to spending 45 minutes in the gym. But I took it ONE DAY AT A TIME.
You don't have to commit to a year of working out as your new years resolution. You don't have to commit to a 30 day challenge.
Just commit to TODAY (or if you really must, tomorrow). Give yourself just 20 minutes on an elliptical, 20 minutes walking through a park, 20 minutes swimming.
Take the FIRST STEP, I guarantee it gets easier after that.
If you need help with that first step, I'm here, waiting to be your cheerleader!! Please reach out to me TODAY at kasey.phillips@gmail.com and let me know how I can support you!!
