I am trying not be be discouraged and frustrated because I feel like I am making some good progress, but my body is getting sore. I can still only run for about a mile and then I am so winded I feel like I am going to suffocate.
I guess I have to look at the big picture and my overall goal. Baby steps is the only way I'm going to get this done. Today I ran (jogged) up and down 484 stairs in about 10 minutes that's not to bad. I want to be able to look back at this in 6 mo. and know that I did my best and it paid off.
One thing that has helped me over the last week or so is the My Fitness app that I downloaded. I am able to enter all the food I eat and keep track of my calories and fat. Right now my goal has been to stay between 1500 and 1800 cal. per day. It had been hard to do some days but I have done really well and stayed under 1800 for 6 of the 8 days I've done it.
