I'm really happy to have one month of walking behind me. I walked 15 out of 30 days (keeping in mind that Sunday's are "restore" days) and logged a total of 32 miles. The last week was the most disappointing because I simply didn't walk. However, I stayed at my parents which means multiple trips up and down the stairs. And we went to Silver Dollar City two days and of course, walked a LOT! So, over all, I feel really good about the first month!
Other progress made:
Weight loss - none. But considering that the last four days have been vacation days - which equals four days of eating out and one lovely Thanksgiving dinner...
Measurements:
- Neck - none
- Waist - 1.5" lost
- Hips - forgot to record my measurement at the beginning of the month! Weird. But I am showing a 3" loss since last August! I'll take it!
- Bust - also forgot to record at the beginning of the month. No loss shown yet.
Non-scale victories:
- I'm sleeping better!
- At SDC I was no where nearly as winded as I have been in the past. I kept up with my hubby who is over 6' tall and has those really long legs. I think this was a HUGE victory!!
- I'm much more aware of what goes in my mouth!!
- I feel so much better on the days I walk!
- I stuck with this. I'm terrible about starting something and not finishing it. So it feels good to say: I did it.
Overall, this has been a very positive experience for me. So yes, I gladly accept next month's challenge!
