Who Wants to Run?

I am becoming increasingly disgusted with myself. I just eat, eat, eat and sit, sit, sit. I don't eat healthy and I don't exercise. What is wrong with me?! I just keep packin' on the pounds. I'm not even willing to admit how much weight I've gained since our wedding. I got an iPod for Christmas (not this past Christmas, Christmas 2007!) and I was sure that would give me the incentive to start running. But it didn't. I live in such a nice neighborhood, I figured I would have no issue trying to get out there and exercise. But I do. I really want to be healthier and thinner, but I guess I just lack motivation! Where is my motivation?? Have you seen it? Let me know if you find it hiding somewhere...

I'm definitely an emotional eater, and let's face it, the last 7 months of my life haven't been without some crazy emotional stuff! I always envy those people who say, "I'm so stressed/upset/sad/etc. I can't even eat!" Whenever I experience any of those dilemmas, I only seem to eat more!

So I have a new goal. 3 times a week. I'm going to aim to run 3 times a week. I don't think I want to do mornings...I would have to get out of the house by 4:30am, and that's just too early for me. I think I'll plan on evenings (even though it's hotter and I'm tired from a full day of work!) I'm also going to try to do some kind of ab workout a couple days a week too. I think that would be a good start, and I'll just try to maintain that for a couple weeks. Then I'll readjust and add more if I can. Let's hope I can do it!
