The Challenge Begins. . .

Monday, November 3rd 2008

So, I've been 246 before. . . I go up and down in the 40's. But now the challenge really begins. Last week, I did great on my exercising. I went every day except Sunday. I think this coming Sunday, I will go. I really want to lose 7 pounds by Thanksgiving. I've lost 2 pounds since 10/20/08. But now the challenge really begins. I've been at 246 before and I will really need to work hard to lose the next 5 pounds.

I did well this weekend. It is easier for me to do the right thing whe...

Support from a Friend

Thursday, October 30th 2008

I spoke with a friend of mine today. Since her birthday in March, she has lost 113 pounds. She wants to lose another 50 pounds. She is about my height and was about my weight. In March, she turned 50 and decided to do something about her weight. She joined a gym and got a trainer. She eats about 1500 calories. At first, she could not walk, do a minute on the elliptical trainer, lift a weight, or a sit up. Now, she works out 2 hours every day (except Sunday). She can go an hour on the ell...

It's Fall

What's outside my window at work this morning? FALL!!!!

Smelly Pumpkin

Tuesday, October 21st 2008

This morning, I went downstairs to go and workout. When I went into the kitchen, I smelled something that smelled like stinky urine. It turned out that the pumpkin I had sitting on the countertop was rotting. There was a pool of slimy liquid on the counter and the floor. YUCK!!! The pumpkin, which had not even been cut into was rotting. It now sits in my flower bed in the front yard.

I worked out this morning. My legs are feeling it. I'm supposed to have dinner with a friend tonight...

New Day, New Committment

Monday, October 20th 2008

I just got back from the doctor's office. Two problems, my Ac1 was 7.3 and my weight was up 3 pounds from May's visit. BUT, the good news is that he took me off one of my blood pressure medications. I have been off one of the BP meds for about a month and today's BP was 102/71. . . I am happy about that.

I need to recommit myself to losing this weight and getting healthier. Last week, I only exercised twice. Obviously, I need to do better than that. I should have exercised this mornin...
