I lost 9 pounds....9, 9, yes, 9! (Channeling Ferris Buehler's mom when Principal called to tell her that Ferris had missed school...9 times)
It has taken me about four weeks. But I know that it was hard work and although I would love to see a bigger number, I am pleased with what I have. Faithful to the program? For the most part...counting points, tracking food, etc. Faithful to my exercise program...not so much. I had been training for the upcoming 5K using coolrunning.com's "C25K" program (from couch potato to 5K runner in two months) but training stalled on January 2. My last run/walk was January 1 in very bitter cold temperatures and it took me about two hours to recover from the asthma. So, the weather up till now has been either freezing (below 30 degrees) or windy/rainy. I have to figure out how to overcome this obstacle. If it was just procrastination and procrastination alone I would be ashamed. The asthma makes it tough. So, I am a bit nervous about my 5K this coming weekend. Unsure if I will be able to wog (walk/jog). I guess it doesn't matter much. As long as I show up and do.
A journey of my fortieth year. A recommitment to myself and those I love to be a better me.
About Me
- Your 31 Bag Lady
- I am starting a journey that I call "RE" which means that after listing areas that I want to change or improve, I have decided to attack them with gusto to become the Me that I want to be. True to form, I was on fire for the re-newal but started procrastinating around month three and now I have three months before the big 40 arrives. Procrastination in my middle name...or rather, Tina is procrastination's middle name. See? Right there? In the middle? Tina.
