Introduction

I've been attempting to lose 10kg for the past couple of months. So far, I have pretty much lost nothing. I've yo-yoed up and down over the past 2 months, and am pretty much exactly where I started.

Even though I haven't really lost weight in terms of kg, I still have achieved quite a bit over the last couple of months. I can now run 5km without stopping, my best time so far is 36:11. My best 2km time this year is 12:44.

Other than the 10kg, my goals are:

• 2km in under 10 minutes
• 5km in under 30 minutes
• 10km

I can only blame the lack of weight loss on my diet, it's the only thing left that must be the cause. I could probably also add more variety to my workouts. I need to do weights more often, and maybe yoga or pilates will also help.

I'm going to use this blog to record my exercise, food intake, thoughts, challenges, celebrations, etc.

I started a similar blog years ago, it can be found here: http://juliegetsfit.livejournal.com
