Freezing but thrilled! ๐Ÿ˜

So the โ€˜beast from the eastโ€™ is back and at six thirty this morning I looked out and saw it was windy. I had definite second thoughts about going out today! So glad I did though. It was freezing cold and so windy with winds going in all directions. My legs were really battling against the wind on every interval but I completed them all! I may have been practically begging Sarah Millican to say โ€˜thatโ€™s it youโ€™re done for todayโ€™ by the end but I completed it. Before this process I would have given up half way through or not gone out at all. Iโ€™m so proud of the way this is changing my perseverance and attitude. I feel like this time I may actually succeed and lose the weight. Itโ€™s a good feeling!
