NO Loss, BUT NO Gain either!

So I stay the same weight! Thank God I didn't go up.

I just registered to walk in a 5k race on Sunday night, June 9, 6:30 PM. I hope you'll come out to cheer me on!

My first race. It is 3 miles.... OH my goodness what have I gotten myself into now???

1 more thought .....

One more thought about how I am doing with my weight loss. I had set up this very difficult desire to lose 10 pounds a month - EVERY month. I know this would be possible, but it is a VERY high expectation. I need to go easier on myself so there is no room for berating myself for not doing well.

You have to be realistic about your goals, and you also have to be able to take it easy on yourself.

That said, I move on to getting weighed-in tonight. Here's wishing for progress.

Ugh, another weigh in tonight!

Ok all, it has been quite a while since my last post. I guess I've been so busy with school & work that I haven't had time to log in.

My biggest discomfort comes on Tuesdays.... ofcourse, because I have to weigh in at Weight Watchers after work. I had stopped walking due to the pain it was causing my ankles and knee.... replacing it with cycling at home on my stationary bike... Yeah, believe that one. My plan was to do that, but some how it never seems to get accomplished. So I plod along, due to changing my food intake & diet at 1 pound per week, if that. I MUST get back ontrack. I am going to try to get up really early tomorrow & travel to Curves for a workout & sign up for $30/30 day program. Let's see if I can get there 3 - 4 times a week for 30 minutes to get in some serious working out.

I am also hoping to get a personal trainer/friend to help me at Bally's which is so much closer to me, so I can get myself in shape for a convincing "after" picture for my BFL contest. They say that 1/2 of their judging is in the transformation pictures & measurements and the other half is with the content of your writing. I believe I can really get to the hearts of the judges with my emotional outpouring of inspirational thoughts. I think they will be very interested in my progress and my story. I just need to crack down on the physical working out so I have more to show from following the program.

Well, enough of a rambling. I know that this is all under God's watch. What he has chosen to happen to me, will happen. The rest is not for me to worry about. RIGHT?! Definitely RIGHT. :-))


More in a few days, perhaps after I weigh in tonight.
