I guess I run now

Yes, there’s still pain. Tons of it. Pain to spare. But I should spare you the painfully dull & self-indulgent details.

Yesterday my mouth got the most workout what with my constant moans, groans, and complaints. I did manage 2 walks with hubby, but they were slower walks than normal. At least the walks kept me loose, right? The upside is that with all this bootcamp pain, I had no desire to snack away whatever good I may have done on Monday. So my only snack yesterday was 1/2 a peach. That’s progress since my nights have included things like nuts & pretzels or worse, some kind of fruit cobbler or fat free pudding for the last few weeks. Gee, my snacks alone are probably worth a 1/2 pound loss a week.

So the goal is to lose 10-12 pounds before Thanksgiving, nice and easy. I have a trip to San Antonio right before that, so the Thanksgiving goal will, hopefully, keep me honest on my trip. I think that will be enough of a loss for my family to notice. Then it’s another 5-7 pounds (at breakneck speed) before Christmas, which should be enough for the in-laws to notice. I’m all about getting noticed now, apparently. Then I’m buying a new pair of 2-sizes smaller jeans for my birthday on the 30th to celebrate a good year of getting in shape & I’ll be ready for another year.

Have a great day everyone!
