I met another goal. Lose, cumulatively, 20 pounds by Thanksgiving. As of today,over the past 14 weeks, I have lost 21. I am grateful for that. I feel so much better and my clothes are finally telling me I am losing weight. My goal of 20 by Thanksgiving was to help me not pig out and scrap exercise during the holidays. I don't want to mess up what has been done so far. Crossing my fingers it works. Also, I am going to try to do a calorie count on all my favorite foods. Not to say I won't have them, but if I know that one piece of toffee bar is 800 calories I won't have 6 of them at one time (I don't know how many calories they are yet and I won't be so annoying as to let the rest of my family know, unless they want to know.)
On Thanksgiving Day I am running the Turkey Trot 5k in Springfield. My goal? To run the race in 37:30. That would be about two minutes off my last race. That is a lot to ask, I know. But got to have a goal.
I have had trouble with the mid-afternoon sugar fix. Haven't figured out how to overcome except the fact I have no money to buy something. :)
