| The beginning... January 2008 |
Today was a good day, personally but not professionally. I weighed myself for the first time since the week after the race. I had lost 6 pounds that week but put it on the next, which was just fine, I didn't really even feel it. Today I decided to check in, since I spent the day at a meeting yesterday, sitting on my butt and ate a bagel, half a sandwich, a salad and a cookie. I am down to 161!! 69 pounds lost over the last 2-1/2 years, and my "original" goal of 150 is only 11 pounds away! That is the number on my drivers license since high school, and I KNOW IT was a lie.......for many, many years. So to be this close.....wow. I am going to focus back on my diet a bit more, since I have been kinda eating what I want, within reason, and just exercising. I look at the pictures Janet took of me today and I have never felt so thin, even though my butt doesn't believe it, nor my thighs. I really just feel like I need to firm up, can't really see myself losing another 30 pounds. I think that would be too much. But again, I digress. I really am not scale focused. It is just really exciting to be at a weight that I am not embarrassed to share anymore. Sure, it's not 125 and I don't care. I am focusing on feeling good about myself, feeling good in my clothes, and getting more physically fit. I still have a ways to go and I am in no rush.
Halloween at school tomorrow. Ugh. I cannot stand the thought of another wasted day that I so desperately need to continue assessing my students because report cards are due in a week and a half. There is so much to test and they are not independent enough to work and let me test one on one.
Anyway, the bright part of tomorrow will be that Beki, a woman from the old gym and I are heading up to SF to take Body Combat and Body Pump with Alex and we are so excited!! I am missing the old classes and more so, the expertise that goes along with my old instructors..........Kick my butt Alex!!!
