I am only human

There is a friend of mine at work Lungile who I admire for so many things, firstly she has had two children, a single capable mom a breadwinner at home who bought her mother a house and finally a woman who is able to maintain her figure. Of course she thinks she can still loose a pound or two but in my eyes she is healthy and perfect. Its easy for me to relate to her because she has had kids and comparing myself to other people is not fair to me because their stomach muscles have never been stretched to the maximum. Anyway she has decided to join me in my exercises, at first I ignored her thinking she will probably outdo me but today we took our first walk which is over 7kms and I did not feel akward as though I had to catch up. Infact I could withstand more of the pain and I was proud because that showed me that even though I might not loose weight at a fast pace, I am however improving day by day. Infact I went home and ran another km making my daily workouts to be about 8kms. Pushing myself harded is getting easier but there are days when I feel lazy, but hey I am human. So if I feel lazy again I will remind myself of what the end result will be and how much prouder I will be for it. Lungile is my perfect example.
