Hi Emily, it's good to see you posting again :)
Hey Heidi - I haven't been walking as much, I've been getting some 3 mile walks in, but haven't done any endurance walks lately.

I know there are people on this site who might have REAL winters - but I've been too dang COLD to hit the streets in the morning ;)

I'm also not going to be in the half marathon I was considering doing this coming weekend. Between not training this month well, and brakes, rotors, tires, battery, alternator, dog-at-the-vet and Christmas, I just couldn't justify pony'ing up the entry fee.
 
Heya's M2M,
Sorry I haven't been here in a while! but looks
like your doing gr8 and speaking of winter knock on wood it has
been 50-60's in the day and 35-45 at night not bad for January!
Have a gr8 weekend,Tammy:)
 
Hiya M!! Just wanted to pop in and say hi!! Bummer on the marathon, maybe next time? Have a great weekend!! :D:D
 
bugger on the marathon, im not keen on some of the entry fees on the cycling races either, but it seems that all the good races are when im due to hit my surgery goal so im neg on that either.

Walking or running should warm you up shouldnt it?

Oh Wishes, I didn't realize you were looking at surgery! When is that supposed to happen? And yes, walking/running does warm me up - today I thought it would be warm enough - my kitchen window said 75 (it's in the morning sun, so it runs a little warmer in the day), but I set out to walk and had to come home to get a jacket. I shed the jacket 3 miles into the walk - but it took me that long to even consider it.

As for my walk - I got 5.25 miles in and not my best time 1:10.45 Seems my slacking off has effected my speed - who knew? ;)
 
Well, I'm ending the day with a low calorie day. Tomorrow is my birthday (where HAS the year gone???) and I know pizza and cake is on the menu - I'm not going to over do it - moderation not abstinence - that's my goal.

So - it's been a year since I went shopping to find clothes for my party. I tried on a gazillion pairs of jeans and was able to squeeze into a size 20. It should have been a 22.

It was waking up and turning 40, when I said "THIS IS IT, I'm DONE being fat".

A year later, 73 pounds lighter, I'm still as adament - I'm DONE being fat, before I hit 42, I will be at my goal. Much before my next birthday.

I love the empowerment that this year has given me. I love feeling like I can shop and have OPTIONS. I love knowing that right now, wearing a pair of size 12 jeans, I'm smaller then I was when I met Bob and I love feeling sexy again - even if I do have weight I want to lose.

I've learned this year that there is SO much more of who I am then my size, or the limits of size - but I've also learned how much I VALUE better health.

Waking up 40 and 102 pounds over weight was a rude awakening.
I'm glad it happened.
I might still be asleep!

Sorry for the rambling - I'm waxing nostolgic tonight :)
 
I know I am late to the party, but I been browsing through your journal. You have done an amazing job!!! 70+ pounds is awesome. With that kind of determination, you will be at you goal in no time! You look great!

Gooooood Morninggggg!!!

Thanks for all the Birthday Well Wishes!!

I have survived circling the sun 41 times! I had a great dream with my mom in it last night and it's BEAUTIFUL outside!

I plan on getting my walk in around 9:00(ish) I put an audio book on my iPod - and I can't wait to hear some more!

Last year I had like 6 parties - it felt like we were constantly celebrating, my plan for today, by my choice, was to keep this like every other Sunday, family breakfast, go grocery shopping for my M-I-L, go to her house, drop off the groceries, pick her up and bring her back for an early dinner and games. I didn't want to go OUT to eat and make the focus on food. The focus today is on just spending time with the family.

The graces were trying to figure out when to get together for my birthday, and I said I couldn't do anything today - so I opened my mail this morning and in a flurry of emailing that must have happened from 12:00 am to 5:00 am they got it all settled, and we'll be celebrating this week :D

So I'll be around off and on today - it's a normal Sunday, Yay!!
 
Hey, Happy Birthday to you! Sounds like you have a wonderful day planned with your family. Enjoy, you deserve it :D
 
Happy Birthday to you,Happy Birthday to you,Happy Birthday dear Debi,Happy Birthday to you...You must be sending out sexy vibes you have a sexy half dressed man in your diary sending you well wishes and support, LOL...enjoy your day!!!
