I am a selfish person. I have known this about myself for a long time. I try not to be selfish, but I suppose that is a natural tendancy--you know, self preservation, and all.
There are people on this site that I wish I would write to more often in support, friendship, whatever. I think all of you are wonderfully interesting people. I read your blogs and I read some of your posts on the forums. I am not consistent in any of this and I wish I would be unselfish enough to reach out to ea...

I was really hoping to get my run back and go to the gym every morning this week. Buuuuuuuut, Noooo! I HAD TO GET SICK!!! I'm so disappointed. We have plans to go to the gym tonight, but only if I can breathe through my nose. So far, not too sure about that.

I ran!!! For the first time in over 8 years I was able to run again! I did it for 10 minutes on the TM at 3.7MPH--with my random incline, nonetheless. I know, no speed records getting broken here...but I did it. My motivation is all renewed now and I am SOOOOOOOOOOO happy.
Also, despite the train wreck of a week I thought I have been having in the food department, I managed to drop 2 lbs. My jaw almost hit the floor, seriously. I was expecting to hold steady or to even creep up an ou...
