The bad news first...
As I expected, the treadmill hasn't gotten as much as I would like for it to have this week. I did spend a little bit of time on it, but not nearly enough. I keep thinking it will sound more appealing, as I get some weight off and start feeling better about it.
The good news...
I stayed on track for my daily points, and lost 3.8 pounds last week! Looking forward to Friday, to weigh in again, and HOPING for another good weigh in.
Hoping to go out to dinner with my husband on Valentines Day, wearing some skimpy, sleazy outfit, weighing 38 pounds less! :) O.K., so maybe not too skimpy, and probably not sleazy, but for sure HOT! :)
O.K. Here's to making time and finding energy for the abandoned treadmill, and another good weigh in this week!

Back In The Game
Today, my attitude is in the gutter. What I really, really want to do is take a warm shower, go to bed and cover up in my warm snuggly bed, and sleep the night away.
But I made a chioce. I started Weight Watchers again, on Friday. I have gained back all but just a few of the 30 pounds I lost last year.
Today I made a choice instead of covering up in my bed, to get on my treadmill. It was hard. It was hard to push start, and it was hard to keep going once I did. It is much harder this time around, because when I started the Couch 2 5K program before, I was almost 25 pounds lighter.
It is harder to run when you need to lose 40 pounds.
Anyway, I am recommitted to following my Weight Watchers plan. I want to lose about 38 pounds, and I hope to do this by Valentines Day.
I am also going to try to use my treadmill 3 times a week. I don't have a real definite plan for that yet, still trying to decide what I want to do. I messed up one of my knees pretty good somewhere along the line, and I am not sure that I want to put the strain on them at this point. Today, I followed day one, and I am thinking about following the program, but a bit slower than it is laid out. Mostly because I am heavier, and more out of shape and I would rather ease into it, instead of getting burned out. So... I am pretty sure that there isn't anyone that still checks in here, and that is fine with me... But I do plan to keep up with this a bit, just for myself.
We will see where this takes me. I am pretty down, that I am starting all over. But.... Here I go!
