Walked my first 5K today!

[jarvist]

Tried one last year.... but couldn't complete it. This morning I did the whole thing! All alone.... with only about 10 people out of 3000 BEHIND me.... but I kept walking and made it! Thinking about doing another one next weekend and have already signed up for one on the 25th!

This site is keeping me motivated and helping me get back on the wagon after a brief fall. The weight isn't coming off as fast as I would have liked.... so I am re-doing my induction period. Found the Atkins site and the list of acceptable foods here on this site last night.... and didn't realize that nuts and peanut butter weren't on the acceptable list for induction.... and I practically lived on nuts for the first two weeks.

Love all the posts.... keep it up. Thanks for all of the encouragement.... keep THAT up too!

Thanks a million!

well good for you! accomplishments and progress are yours for the taking!

i hope you have the opportunity to read the book so you have the full benefit of the induction list of foods and the information that you will need for OWL.

Congratulations Tammy that is fantastic! Last year you couldn't complete it. This year you did AND have at least one more coming up. I wonder what's in store for you for next year...10K maybe?

Keep up the good work!
