Pounds lost in Week 39: 1.4 pounds
Total weight lost so far : 25.6 pounds
This week was a wash of last week. I lost the exact 1.4 pounds I gained last week. I don’t know if that was because I was good and tracked and even took a walk this weekend or because it was my body normalizing out after last week’s hormonal debacle. Needless to say, I started this week off well with a mile walk this morning. I’m hoping to continue a new exercise regime (at least on the 3 days I go to work) because I know this is the kick-start that my body needs to get out of its rut.

Woohoo! Congrats!! Loosing what you gained last week is great. And so excited you’re going out walking. I’ll get you running a 5k in no time.

Good work! It’s been beautiful outside this week, makes it easier to get moving, doesn’t it?

It’s funny how every week can be different for everyone! I have a week where I feel like I ate bad and lose 2 pounds, then I have what I thought was a good week and lose nothing (like last week!) I guess all that matters is we are healthier and lighter than we were when we started this thing! And that’s a great life choice in my opinion.
Oh, and I’m with Chris…once you get running it’s fantastic! (Ask me 3 years ago if I ever would have thought running was fantastic and I would have said you were crazy!) And going out and completing your first 5k (even walking) is a great accomplishment.

Thank you all for the compliments. I’m still of the “running is out of my league” opinion, but if you guys can do it, then maybe I can, too. One of these days, I’ll surprise you all by posting that I ran!

Lady, if I can run, you can run. *nod* Seriously. Know how I started? I ran 30 seconds, walked 30 seconds. Then I ran for a minute, walked 30 seconds. And I know you have the Wii Fit. Try the run activity. You run in place, but you start getting used to the motion. You can do it. I just uttered the words “if I become mad maybe I’ll run a half marathon.” I’m insane…
