Now, we are in the present tense!

My verb tenses have been all over the place! Sorry to those English teachers and grammar nuts! I just wanted to get to the present! 

So here we are! 

I have lost 27 pounds so far! Since January 3rd!! I don't have the eating thing down perfectly, but I'm working on it! Here is a little tidbit about myself...I don't eat fruit, and barely eat veggies. So, eating has been a challenge. I don't crave the chocolate and junk. Which is a miracle. But I don't love the veggies and fruit yet. I am a work in progress! 

The gym is my favorite thing about my journey so far! I go almost every day. I say hi to my new friends, and then I work out for about an hour and a half. I didn't realize it would be such a time commitment, but I'm worth it! The new Holly is worth it! 

So, today was a big day! I jogged for 1 minute straight. When I started I could barely walk a mile. Now, I am jogging at the slowest speed available. I can actually walk at the speed I am jogging. But it's something! It's a lot!!! 

I have 2 fitness goals that I am looking toward. I have a short term goal and a long term goal!

1. My short term goal is really sorta long term. I want to run in a 5K! I am planning on November! I want to run in the color run race! I've heard it's easy and fun! I know.... That's almost a year away.... I'm giving myself plenty of time! At the rate I am going.... I need it! I bought my first pair of running shoes today! Whooot whoot!!!

2. My long term goal is to be a Zumba instructor! This is far fetched right now. To see me in a Zumba class right now is scary to say the least. I am a musician though and I have some rhythm, so I think I can do it!! Well, I know I can do it!! My plan is to get certified when I lose my extra weight! 

That's it right now....my fitness goals are out there for all to see!
