At it again :)

Yes, I am at it again. After a bit of a setback, I have now been successfully back on track for 4 weeks. I have been diligent over those 4 weeks and have lost 6 pounds in the last 4 weeks.

I am also training for my first official 5K. Yes I know I told you about a 5K I did back in May, but that was unofficial, in my neighborhood. This one is official. Like a "race" and there will be other runners there, including my friend Jordan - who is a real runner. I told her I'm slow, but I don't think she really believes me. She shall soon see! The race is this upcoming Saturday. So far I am up to running 26 min and 10 minutes separated by 2 min of walking. I am estimating it will take me about 36 min to run the 5K. So, I'm training toward that end. If I could do it in about 35-36 min on *game day* I will be pleased.

So, here's hoping for another good week this week. Just gotta keep being faithful.

I know there are 3 things I don't want...

1) another family picture of me not looking the way I want to
2) a spring break ski trip where I am not fit for the activity
3) a summer season of being embarrassed to be in a bathing suit

#1 will occur in Feb, #2 in Mar, and #3 by May... still got a lot of work to do!

But 6 pounds down! 44 more to go!
