219... C25K and weight confessional

Feb 01, 2010

Last week on 1/26 I wrote about starting the c25k program . I was frustrated because I had already been on a couple of jog/walks and the scale hadn't started moving.  (224 lbs) UGH!!! I was so desperate just to see a little nudge and proof that I was doing the right thing.

Well I am happy to report that Saturday I was down 2 lbs, Sunday down two more and today another. What the hell??? Is this some crazy Twilight Zone episode and any minute I go crazy and they cut to commercial?  Is this really happening.

I have never since the very beginning of this journey dropped 5 in a week. I can barely drop 5 a month.  

EXERCISE.... I knew about it but never kicked it up enough to feel the sweat and pain. And certainly not enough to make the scale move. Well I am a believer now. 

But wait...I'm Caucasian. I'm so white I'm almost freaking albino no thanks to my Portuguese mother. What I'm saying is that I have NO elastic in my skin that I can tell. What if I drop too fast and my skin doesn't shape up like it has been. I don't want plastics but I don't want saggy skin either. Yes! I'm really that vain. I'm only 32 and have my whole life to live in this vessel. I want it as ship shape as it can be. Now I've got a whole new dilemma to consider....
