“Wrong Century” by Tomas Kucerovsky

10 mile walk with Papa. #training #walking #bodymagic #slimmingworld (at Cliddesden)

[iwillbehalf]

Training for the Macmillan Mighty Hike. First long walk. Hoping to get up to 20 miles or so in training. So think this was a good start.

[iwillbehalf]

So even though my legs were aching from the walk (and 6 minute run! Still #proud) yesterday, I went on another walk today. Not as long, just 2.5 miles. But felt I needed to get it done so I'm in the mind that it's what I do. Having a day off tomorrow and then Thursday I'll either be walking again or swimming. Think I might swim just to break it up. Planning a 10 mile walk with my dad over the weekend, so might want to rest up my legs a little for that. But still try and do some walking, just not miles and miles. Maybe just to my Granma's or something, she lives about 1 mile away. So that I'm constantly building, but not pushing too hard. Don't want to over-exert myself (says the person looking to do a walking marathon 😂).

I RAN

So, for most people this is not a big deal. However... Starting my journey at 19stone made all exercise very uncomfortable. And running was impossible. I don't mean that I felt silly or couldn't run fast or far, I mean I literally could not run. I don't know if it was my general level of fitness being really low, my excess baggage holding me back, or the fact that my excess baggage got in the way of making the physical movements, but I couldn't do it. I would try (albeit very rarely). Like when running for a bus or trying to push myself with exercise, but I genuinely could not run. But yesterday... I ran! I mean I ran for a total of six minutes, and I only ran in 30 second intervals, but I FUCKING RAN. And it felt amazing. I tested myself to try and run for 30 seconds, thinking I would try, fail and then continue on my walk as normal. But I did it. And then I walked for 10 minutes and wanted to do it again. I need a new (smaller) sports bra and had to run with my arms all tucked up by my sides so I didn't knock myself out, but I bloody ran. I think I might like running. In short intervals. Maybe. (Next week I'll hate it. Probably)

Went for a 5.5 mile walk earlier. Even ran a little, and by a little I mean no more than 6 minutes in total, and only for 30 seconds at a time, but I RAN! But I didn’t stretch. Bad plan. Now I’m aching :( #walk #run #dogwalk #slimmingworld #bodymagic (at Dinton Pastures Country Park)

5 stone down.

No-time Formula 1 champion David Coulthard thinks women aren't built to win race

The Scot insists women lack the killer instinct to go for gold because they have 'the mothering gene.'

I used to like him. What a knob.

😍😍 I’m slimming to make my body healthier. I am proud of my body, it is strong and has got me this far. But I know that it can be so much healthier and stronger. I want to feel strong, healthy and confident. I’m half way there. #slimmingworld #slimmingworlduk #losingweight #weightloss #weightlossjourney

I don’t really see that much of a difference in the mirror. But putting two picture side by side… #slimmingworld #slimmingworlduk #losingweight #weightloss #weightlossjourney #facecomparison

This is my happy face. Weighed in today, after two weeks in Canada, and still lost 1lb!! 😍😍 Bloody miracle. I genuinely do not understand how. Really hoping it doesn’t catch up with me next week 🙈🙈going to have to be really good to keep it in check! This really motivates me. It lets me know that naturally I am eating better and making better choices than I ever did before! My body and my mind is thanking me 🙌 #slimmingworld #weighday #weighdayresults #losingweight #weightloss #weightlossdiary #motivation

I want to reblog this on my main because I know I have a lot of young female followers. 

If you’ve said no (to sex, to kissing, to ANYTHING) and he responds with anything other than “ok”/”oops, sorry to make you uncomfortable”: RED FLAG. 

No matter how “nicely” a guy phrases it, if you say no and he goes “welllll”, it means that in his mind he’s already decided “well she doesn’t want to but I could probably talk my way around the situation to get what *I* want from her regardless of what she actually wants or is comfortable with”. He’s like a used car salesman: he KNOWS what you want (and what you don’t want), but he only cares about what HE wants, and he figures if he keeps talking he’ll eventually find the in he needs to manipulate you.

Please be wary. Real men do NOT do this. Good guys do NOT do this. Non-garbage humans would never dream of doing something YOU DID NOT CONSENT TO. Don’t shrug off how rapist that mindset is. You said no, he heard “not yet, please try again”.That’s not ok.

Are you proud of your 5k "run" time?

Yes, I am!

I am not sure how to respond to this but I guess I will share two thoughts with you. 

Running is a very individual sport - unless you are in the elite of the elite, the only person most of us are competing with is ourselves. In my expierence, most runners know this, making me suspect you are not in the community. 

Running at my weight is not easy. What do you weigh anon? 150? 160? I invite you to join me any time, strap on an extra 190 lbs and race me. I am pretty confident that pound for pound I could take most people, including you. 

Good try anon - you didn’t piss me off, just made me smile at the thought of our “race” :)

Amazing and classy response - as always!!! I’ll never understand the nastiness some people try to spread. Way to go John!!
