Today for the first time EVER I walked for more than 5kms - 7 to be exact. It is a holiday and I was up by 5:30 am for some strange reason. I felt so driven, so motivated to exercise. I am not sure whether this has anything to do with the fact that I started this blog but whatever it is I am glad it happened because I did not know that I could walk for that long without feeling sick. What an impact this has on me. I feel like I am standing on top of the world and I can achieve anything, I genuinely feel inspired to continue tommorow and see where this new feeling takes me. The nice thing is that my husband did the walk with me, he is a very supportive man but has a tendency to call me "fatty" as an affectionate term. I have alowed him to do that because I felt confident with my overweightness but recently I have been feeling that I have been hiding my true feelings. I loath being called that - so this evening I willl let him know so that he can find another affectionate term that will not demorilise what I want to achieve, that wont mock the progress made - no matter how small or insignificant it might be to the weight I still need to loose. He is very creative I am sure he will.Yes the road is still long but I have taken that first crucial step towards a healthier life.
