Oh to be just overweight!

Like most days for me, there’s good news and bad news.  The bad news is that I did find a couple pounds at my parent’s house (which really isn’t that bad of news since I know I ate a little off-plan a few times and can easily put that behind me).  I did exercise everyday and mostly ate reasonably, so no major regrets.  Each time I go, I get a little more insight into how to handle it better the next time. 

The good news is my doctor says I’m actually 5′3″ (I don’t know why I thought I was 5′2″) which means I only need to drop to 169 to be overweight instead of obese!!  The major short term goal of this journey is in sight, people!  Can someone say WOO HOO!!??!  I am so happy to know that in the next couple months I will be making progress in new territory.  I haven’t been below 174 for several years (10 years actually, except for one freakishly low weigh-in while on South Beach 4 years ago). 

Anyway, I’m pumped and so ready to get on with this.  I got my new workout dvd’s in the mail today and tried one out tonight.  It was great!  Over an hour long, too, so I got plenty of calories burned!  Yes!
