Default Into the 180's!
Yay!!!

I kind of took a month and a half off of dieting (ie seriously counting calories) and have just gotten back to things recently. When I returned from vacation I was at 198lb (having left at 204lb about two months earlier) and am FINALLY in the 180's after about a month of serious counting. Today I weighed in at 189.2! Totally euphoric feeling... My original goal was to be at 180 by April which I think I can meet but obviously I'm going to need to reset my goal because 180 isn't really a healthy weight for someone who is 5'5". Back when I was at 250lb, 180lb seemed so low and such a far away goal. It's soooo close now!!!!

Also, I'm finally getting the feeling that I need to step up my exercise routine and start running... it's odd but I like dream of running at night. I'm able to go a good 45min on the elliptical or stairmaster at a reasonal resistance so I think it may be time to venture outside and start running. Maybe soon...

Anyways, I may not post much but I READ all the time for support.

So seriously.... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!

WTG on your weight loss, wow!

I can't wait to hit ONEderland, much less the 180s! You're an inspiration to me, thanks!

For the running, a bunch of gals just started up with the Couch to 5K program (C25K for short) on Mar 1, on the Exercise forum. I'm sure they'd be glad to have another onboard. The thread is called "March 1 C25K Starter's Block" or something very close to that. The C25K is a great beginner's running program. I just finished it recently, and it works!
