Don't Tell Me What I Can't Do!!

Have you ever experienced people telling you there is no way you can do something.  "Never gonna happen", they would tell me, "you'll never be able to do that again" , "you shouldn't exert yourself like that", etc. 
And then you do it. 
HA
Today instead of working out, I took a long walk.  I like walking, always have.  But today was different, today I decided that I was going to jog some of the way.  Now that doesn't seem like a big deal, until you consider the fact that I'm asthmatic, severely.  And up until about, oh I don't know, 90 days ago when I started the Release Dare Program, I got winded walking to my car.
Doctors have told me for years to keep my exercise to a minimum and then threw medicine at me.  Until I turned vegan, another story, I was in the hospital with asthma attacks at least 6 times a year.  
So for me to jog?!!? 
HUGE!!
So like I said, today started out with a walk and a, ahem, drum roll please, A JOG!!!
Stayed on plan with my meals and even went out to dinner!  
(I learned how to order from one of the lessons in Release.)
Gotta start drinking a little more water though, that's a must.  Only up to 8 glasses today so far, but the evenings not over.
Mmmm.  I wonder if I should invest in good jogging shoes? Yep!
