watergirl is on a distinguished road
Default Awww Irela!

You so totally ROCK!!!!! That is so cool to know that I've inspired you to do something that is healthy! That makes me feel so good. And what a nice compliment!

Starting is so much harder than continuing. That is how I started my excersise routine. I started out slow. Walking for a half hour, then 35 min., then 40, then, 45 and so on, but every day. I'm not perfect, I didn't start excersising until I was 5 months out, I know, my bad. But I started eating more and not losing as much weight. I became frightened - I knew I had to do something. Preparing for the Breast Cancer 3 Day walk in October has been my motivation. I have to be physically fit in order to walk 60 miles in three days. I welcome anyone to come join our walking on Sunday mornings. Last Sunday we walked from Torrey Pines lifeguard tower number 4 to La Jolla Shores, South of the pier. It was a 12 mile walk on the beach.

Irela, you did a great job in explaining how you feel afterwards, because it is an awesome feeling to know that you've done IT! You'll sleep better and feel better all day long.

I'm here to cheer you on - one step at a time! Rock on sister girl!
