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 out over [...]
I feel silly. I was already in bed but my mind started racing, convincing myself that I had to come back downstairs to type this blog post before I could lull myself to sleep.
Yesterday I ached a little. After Monday’s 45 minute jog/run, I felt pretty good, but yesterday my muscles reminded me that they [...]
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 short, at the end [...]

I repeated my treadmill workout tonight. This time, I made 13 of the 30 minutes be running minutes! I am happy with the increase, but even more so, I am thinking that the running motions were a little smoother and less cumbersome. I actually felt like a runner! I kind of “looked” like one too.
