Weigh In Day

November 18, 2008

I lost 4 pounds this week for a total of 17 pounds. Actually, It really could be 20 pounds. I know I’ve seen that number (my current weight plus 20 pounds) before. That’s so awesome. I am going to make my goal before Thanksgiving barring any unforeseen tragedies. I am averaging 4 lbs a week right now. So I have 5 weeks between now and Christmas. I could be down another 20 pounds before Christmas. If I continue on this course without fail, I could be down 69 lbs before the retreat! I realize this is all hypothetical and with the Holidays between us, anything can happen. But it doesn't hurt to dream! That is a huge dream. I need to exercise to help that dream along. I checked out the pool schedule for water aerobics yesterday. They only have like 2 or 3 days that I could attend between now and Christmas. I need to find something else until they open up their winter schedule in January. I have to see Amy tonight; I will inquire about the treadmill they’ve promised me. Things are a little bit tight financially right now so I don’t think joining a gym would be prudent. Man, why is exercising in the fall/winter so hard?
