I'm having a great day. Went for my WW weigh in and had a decent weight loss for the first time in weeks. 900g (2lbs)
Then went to the gym and ran 3.5kms without slowing so beat yesterday by half a km. Ran on and off for a bit more and then did some strength machines.
Terrific job! Ah, I should start tracking my weight loss in grams. A number in the hundreds is much more satisfying.
But 2 lbs is wonderful, especially after you've already lost so much weight, but you just keep on steadily losing it. It's admirable to me that you're running so much. I am a terrible, terrible runner... I collapse after half a km.
So did I a few weeks ago.
It's amazing how quickly you improve if you do a bit most days. I make sure that everytime I either run further or faster or if I'm really on form then I do both
I have to agree with you a 900 loss sounds a lot more satisfying than 2.Terrific job! Ah, I should start tracking my weight loss in grams. A number in the hundreds is much more satisfying.
My knee's a bit sore today so I will give it a rest tomorrow. I will either go to the gym and just do machines or more likely go to my friends pool and do some exercising in the water.

Ah, you give me hope that one day I will collapse after a km instead of half a km.
I wish I had some kind of access to a pool. Swimming is a really great alternative when something is sore and you can't properly manage the usual routine. I'm sorry about your knee and hope that it feels better soon.
Also, woohoo: I've lost 3150... grams. Ah, no, let's ignore that part. I've lost 3150. I'm impressive like that.

Big hugs Val....I've only just caught up with your posts over the last day or two and I can't imagine how much you must miss your mum - especially coming up to the one year day. So, lots and alots of big hugs.
As for the running- you are doing amazingly! You'll find that each time you just go a bit further and a bit further and before you know it you are running 5, 6, 7km and if you are outside and there's a hill....sod it, you go up it....You'll just go from strength to strength from now on in! I'm so proud of you!! You are well and truly RUNNY!

I wish my scale would talk GRAMS to me! LOL!Terrific job! Ah, I should start tracking my weight loss in grams. A number in the hundreds is much more satisfying.

! I actually wish it would say,..."Congrats, Alta! You've just burned off another SNICKERS off your ass...keep working hard and we'll burn those Fries on your arms, and if you really work hard we'll burn those Bread Rolls on YOUR rolls!!!!" 
!! ...or just say "It's like Butter Baby, You are MELTING!" !Quick, patent that idea. I'd definitely buy scales like that.

LOL Wouldn't that be cool if every pound gone your scale would say something like that to you? Someone is going to create that and make a bundle of money to self-esteem starved girls looking to lose weight! lol What a cute motivator, you get on the scale after a 2 pound weight loss and your scale hits on you. hahah

I'd like to put in a really early pre-order for that one and be informed the beautiful day when it finally exists so that I can pick it up asap. It reminds me of this, actually: a scale that tells you you're beautiful, hot, sexy, etc every time you step on it.

I came out so happy from the gym. I ran for 3 kms without stopping walked for 10 mins and then ran another 3 kms. I'll soon be able to run a 5k without slowing.
I came out on a total high and I think felt prouder of myself than almost any time in my life. Then in the car I started thinking about how my mum would have been so proud of me and I could hear her in my head saying that she was always there with me and was proud.
Then the song - You'll Never Walk Alone - came on the car radio and I sobbed all the way home.
It was a real mixture of emotions and has left me exhausted. I'm quite emotional this week as on Monday it will be a year since we lost my my mum and I miss her so much.
Sorry for the long post. I needed to write that down.
Excellent running Eycky! I am sooo proud of you too! Well done girl!
And I am sure your Mom was with you thru the whole run. (Maybe thats why you were able to do it.....she knew you needed her help!)
Hope you can find memories of her to make you smile.
Have a great day!

Alta, I don't know how you go about inventing that but I think you should look into it. Seriously, what girl wouldn't want that? Also it would be an awesome gift, I have a friend who I would totally get it for, she has such low self-esteem and she's constantly dieting (she still hasn't figured out you have to change your entire lifestyle or the weight comes back). I can even see it being handed out at Weight Watchers meetings. lol It would be even cooler if you could program it compliment you in different voices - you could chose the voice you find most sexy. lol
Go invent it! GO GO! lol

CONGRATS on the 2lbs! That's just awesome!!
And I think I'd like my scale to be a really sexy man's voice. . . .maybe like Patrick Stewart or something. Every time I lose weight - maybe every 1/2 lb - and have him tell me how goooooooood I'm looking. Just some kind of positive reinforcement. Then maybe every 10lbs it would be programmed for him to tell me that I look so good he wants to see me naked or something else equally provocative.
Maybe I just have a one track mind.
HAHA!
