I may have told you this already but we don't own a scale... or should I say we didn't own one until today! Hubby and my daughter hit Target today so she could sweet talk him out of a new dress she had her eye on. While they were there hubby bought me what I've really wanted since I started this whole adventure... a SCALE! (Note to men: most women will not be happy with you if you buy them a scale. I am a freak of nature. Do NOT try to win a woman's affection with a scale unless she specifically asks for one!)
So, I know you're probably just DYING to know... so I'll just tell you... I've lost 5 pounds!!!!! Woo Freakin' Hoooo! I may or may not have done a dance right there on my new, (and very cool/high-tech looking), scale! I only danced until I realized dancing on the scale makes the numbers go up and I wasn't interested in that nonsense. So, needless to say... today was a good day!
You may have noticed I haven't been writing much about my "running" efforts. We hit the gym hard on Wednesday and I got brave again and did my run/walk routine until I got a crazy pain in the back of my left leg near my ankle. I must have pulled something because it hurt all night! I was asking some more active friends and one asked me what shoes I ran in and did they offer me enough support. I didn't really consider this until they asked. I've been using the same gym shoes since I was pregnant with my 4 year old. Bottom line: hubby and I both bought new gym shoes today. If you were wondering... yes... they're gray and pink.
I've been thinking a lot about my tag line. I'm pretty sure it could use some more optimism. I'm really happy with my progress for today so I've decided to change it for the occasion. Thank you to everyone for the advice, support, and love. I CAN DO THIS... PERIOD!
