Wow. What a month.
I can’t believe it, but here we are… the last day of August. It’s been an interesting month for me. I hurt my knee and went on a trip where I didn’t get enough steps. It seems that all I’ve done this month is try to catch up! I have to get [...]

Well, it’s officially Day 64 and Weigh-In Wednesday. I weighed this morning and the scale said 193. Again. Oh well, it’ll move eventually. I went out to a HUGE dinner last night for my MIL’s birthday. It was great, but may be the reason that the scale continues to say 193, I feel like I [...]

Well, I am back on track this week and it feels good. I have to get 13,000 steps per day this week. It’s been a challenge. Wednesday was my first day of the week and I didn’t quite get there. Yesterday, however, I hit the nail on the head and had 50 steps to spare. [...]

Well, it’s Day 57 for me and things are looking up. My leg is feeling TONS better and I have gotten through the rough last week. I am finally back on track! Last week was a lazy one, though I didn’t gain any weight so I’ll consider it a success. I need 13,000 steps per [...]

Work - About 9 weeks ago, I was promoted to Supervisor, but was unable to move fully into that role until my replacement was found and trained. Well, he is trained. So yeah! Starting Monday, I [...]

OH MY GOSH… KICKBOXING ROCKS!
I went to the class. We started out with jump-rope work to get me all warmed up. Well, mid-way through, my knee went kaput. It hurt like crazy! I kept going though, I wanted to finish.
I learned basic stuff like how to move, right and left punches, [...]

After many months of “considering” it, I have finally done it. I am signed up to take my first Muay Thai class tomorrow evening. It’s at 6:30, so I’m sure that I wil give a full report.
Right now, I am nervous and excited. I am afraid because I am not the athletic type. I am [...]
