moving right along . . . 5 weeks out

Mar 17, 2011

so, 25 pounds down since surgery . . . 54 altogether. not bad . . . when's the last time i ever lost 54 pounds in 76 days? 25 pounds in the last 35 days. i can't say i ever have. i haven't been this close to the 100's (only 16 pounds away) in so many years, i can't even tell you! i'm very excited. today, i went to the gym, and i jogged for 3 minutes at a time during my 55 minute walk. i decreased my minutes because i increased my speed. i was doing over an hour at 3.0, but now i'm doing 3.5 so i lowered it by about 10 minutes and am including 3 minute jogs every 10 minutes. this coming from a woman who couldn't even walk on the treadmill for more than 15 minutes without thinking i was having a heart attack.

i'm really hopeful that i'll be able to get under 200 pounds for the first time in who knows how long, by sometime in april. that's amazing! that's next month. who knows if it will really happen? i don't, but i feel like it's going to happen. if it doesn't, it will happen in may! lol - either way, i will be at my half way mark when i hit 200 pounds. i needed to lose 140 pounds at the beginning of this journey. i have lost 54, and need 16 pounds to get half way. i'm good with that! i know for sure that the last 70 will be a lot harder than the first 70, but to be on that side of the line seems a lot happier to me!

i just can't wait to be a normal size . . . not sure what a normal size is, but it's not what i'm wearing! lol.

i didn't used to care about any of this! what's happening to me!? lol, i only used to care about my health. (before my decision to do the surgery, i didn't even care about that!). now i want to look good too! what the hell?!?!?! lol

anyway, we're moving right along, so i guess we'll see how this pans out.
