Is that you at the top of the highest road? You look happy - even though the pic is very small and it's kinda hard to tell.

Hi Dagmar,

No the picture is actually of me waving my hat on top of Hat Mountain. I just like how skinny that picture makes me look! The bike ride to 14,270' was a couple days ago and is different. I ALWAYS look happy (and very at home) on a mountain top; I've been up almost 1000 of them in my life.

Time to "get back on the horse" today and just get back to my ideal weight before it slips away any further...

I'm back down at my goal weight after a sudden gain of four pounds. Got back on the horse and happily, five days later, that weight was easy come, easy go!

Monday, Sept. 24:

45 minute spin class, with weight intervals
60 minute circuit training class, where I caught myself saying mean girl things to myself about my body as reflected in the classroom mirrors. What amazes me is how I slip into self-criticism almost without realizing it. And it was because I was unhappy about something completely outside me, which has nothing to do with my appearance or my person.

Sat, Sept 22:
-3.4 mile jog in mountains. Horrible, awful, painful - I was very upset and disheartened that it was still that hard after quitting smoking and running more.
-Weights but got so fatigued I had to stop

Sun, Sept. 23
-5 mile hike in Vermont woods. We hiked to Lyn Brook Falls only to find they'd been horribly eroded in floods years ago.

Mon, Sept. 24
-Upper body weights. Hurt knee on Saturday I believe. Overhead press, bent over dumbbell rows, lat pull down, bench press machine, tons of renegade rows and situps with 30 lb dumbbell over my head.
