I have updated my Progress Photos page with another picture. Make sure you scroll to the bottom to see the latest picture, as I have them displayed in descending order.
It was kind of important to me to show my progress in the same clothes because I thought it would more accurately show an “apples [...]
Well, today is a milestone! I’ve hit the 90 pounds lost mark. Today’s weigh-in showed 178, which I was so happy to see after the last few weeks of mini-plateau. Last Monday was 181 (which was a pound gain from the previous) so I managed to lose it and two more.
Despite [...]
Today’s Monday weigh-in was a little disappointing, although yesterday’s wardrobe was uplifting — not even taking the new bra into account!
I gained a pound, according to the scale, so this week’s official number is 181. <sigh>
However, I wore my “college jeans” yesterday and not only was there no “muffin top” spilling [...]
Well, I didn’t run the whole thing (obviously from my time) but I did complete in less than 45 minutes yesterday — 44 actually — or roughly, since I didn’t use a stop watch. Now I just have to concentrate on improving my time.

Yesterday I ached a little. After Monday’s 45 minute jog/run, I felt pretty good, but yesterday my muscles reminded me [...]
My first experience with working towards my new goal was awesome! I’m already wondering if my goal wasn’t big enough. I think the 5K portion is right on target, and the two weeks is doable. I’m wondering if the 45 minutes part of my goal is too lax? Anyway, long story [...]
This was the goal I mentioned in yesterday’s post: I want to be able to run a 5K distance in 45 minutes or less by two months from today.
I plan on using the indoor running track at our local YMCA three days per week on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I have arranged to [...]
A few months ago you may remember me mentioning a couple of friends that were training for a 5K. It was so motivating for me that I dusted off the treadmill in the basement and tried gradually increasing the number of jogging minutes in a 30 minute interval. While I had gotten that [...]
