Loving Progress!

So here I am a little over 2 months into health living and instead of gaining weight I am now losing.  8 POUNDS OF FAT LOST!!!! WOOHOO!!!Have to say scale watching can be a little addictive.  I question if I truly have lost since I didn't in the beginning and then notice....oh it is even lower.  No more scale watching.  I will check it once maybe twice a week but over that is obsessive.  The most important thing is starting to being able to do this I haven't done in years.  Today...I ran.  That is right....modified suicides but instead of walking I ran them.  It was an option I was given....I didn't think I would run the whole thing and I did.  Impressive....well for me it was.  I do basically interval training and had to repeat the "suicides" and also ran them.  I am tired but am so excited to think I will probably be able to run my first race hopefully soon.  Probably next year but that is sooner than it was 2 months ago.  I think one thing that has helped me was the gift of new shoes.  Family bought Chris and I new shoes.  I found out I pronate when I walk, run, stand.  I have not been wearing shoes that have the stability needed for a person with this problem.  Basically I need something with more stability for the inside of the feet.  These made a huge difference.  Still having knee problem but I feel so much more stable.  Interesting enough there is a chance I pronate due to old ankle injury.  I could see because as soon as tried on the shoes my left ankle started hurting slightly.  This is the ankle I have been trying to get to heal for months now and the only answer is weight loss.  Now maybe my ankle will heal properly and I can get even a better workout.
