Monday, 8/20/12 On My Way

I finished week 1 of the Couch to 10K plan and feel great! Today I'll be doing Day 1 of Week 2 of the plan which includes a 3 minute jog (twice) so wish me luck! I went ahead and signed up for the 5K so I'm committed now and can't flake out. I've found that it's good to do things that really make you accountable for your actions so that you have to stick to the plan. I also finally broke down and bought some new clothes, not much, just a couple of pairs of pants and shirts...and a much needed belt! As you can see I'm seriously trying not to spend money on clothes when I'm just going to lose more weight but you just can't go from a size 28 to a 20 without everything being really big on you and can you imagine tryine to wear size 28 pants when I'm a size 16? At least I can wear a belt to hold the pants up but I suppose I'll have to buy a few pairs of pants when I get down to a size 16 but at least I'll be able to do something good with all of my too big clothes when this is over such as donating them to Goodwill. Oh boy, 90 pounds down now and just 10 more to go before my first 100 lbs. lost! That'll make me less than 100 lbs. away from my goal weight of 150 lbs!

Pre-Weight Watchers Weight: 360 lbs.
Pre-Surgery Weight: 344 lbs.
Current Weight: 254 lbs.
Goal Weight: 150 lbs.
Remaining Weight to Lose: 104 lbs. 

How could you not be happy with that! I was just talking to a friend of mine who said that just losing 10 lbs. makes them happy but 90 is unreal! ...which is why I'm always in such a good mood these days. =P
