Some weeks the journey isn't only about weight loss...

Friday, March 26th 2010

Tomorrow is weigh in #13 and one of three things will happen. Either I will 1) lose a small amount of weight - by small I mean under a pound 2) Stay exactly where I was from my last weigh in - 234.8 3) Have a small gain - hopefully under a pound.

I'm not expecting anything big tomorrow.

I'm not going to freak out if the number is a gain. I'm not going to freak out if the number stays the same. I'm not going to freak out if there isn't a "big enough" loss.

I've taken a lo...

The Battle

North = my mind

South = my body

Neither of these armies are the enemy, and yet both sometimes play the “bad guy” in this battle over a lifestyle change. Today the bad guy was my mind. The battle went something like this:

It’s quiet outside, the clock ticks over to 6am. Beeeeep, Beeeeeep goes the alarm. Snooze once. Snooze twice. I feel the war going on.

North: “Stay in bed today. You don’t need to run today. Yes, I know it’s the last day of week 8...

Wednesday, March 24th 2010

These little beauties are you Deltoids. Today they have made themselves known to me. It’s from the swimming I did yesterday (30 laps). I woke up with them sore and while I did have a fleeting moment of “I’ll just skip the swim today”, I swam with them sore today as well (40 laps) so you can bet they’ll be letting me know they’re sti...

Is it a coincidence that as I’m coming up on the -30 pound mark, I’m also coming up to the 30 minute running mark on c25k?



No improvement on speed during this last run. In fact, I’m pretty sure I was going slower but I blame that on the elements (wind, rain) and on the fact that I was too occupied with the idea of having to use the restroom and too far away from anything even if I did stop. 28 minutes came and went and then I hit the first half of the North 30th street hill. This ...

Weigh in #12

Saturday, March 20th 2010

It's been a great week. Not just physically but emotionally. I signed up for my first 5k, I'm coming to an end in c25k (2 weeks left), I had a eye opening therapy session, I found some new muscles, two of my friends are moving more, my husband is losing weight. I've been conscious about the food going into my mouth and the exercise coming off of my body...

12 weeks ago I started posting my weigh ins. It was a hard decision to make them public but I just can't hide this weight and what it's ...
