It's been another frustrating week. If it's not the ankle, it's my sciatic nerve. Makes me want to dive into a pint of ... well, anything. But I didn't. With the exception of a Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger (ok, two of them) and french fries, I didn't go crazy with food last week. I weighed myself this morning and I'm at 196.8. That's almost 2 pounds away from my first 10 pound loss.
To motivate myself a little I decided to go back and look at some pictures. The picture on the left was me back in December of 2006. I was probably around 150. Picture on the right was from August 2012 which was around 200. The picture on the right makes me want to puke.
Tonight I took a walk in my hiking shoes. Why? Because over the 4th of July weekend I'm going to be hiking 47ish miles on the Appalachian Trail. I might be insane, but I am motivated by goals. That's one reason that I sign up for 5Ks. Hopefully I'm not crazy...
I'm also motivated by competition... so if you have a FtiBit, I want to be your friend. Give me more people to try and out step. Send me a message if you don't have my email and I'll send it to you. And feel free to spread my blog around to anyone else you think might want to read.
Tomorrow morning will be C25K. Feel free to harass me to make sure I got my fat bottom out of bed.
What FitBit do you have? I had a Jawbone Up for a while but it met an untimely end in a car door hinge... I might be tempted to pick one up to compete with you.
