Out of the 250s

Its been a long time since I have updated this page. I am very happy to say that I am now 245 pounds. I have 13 more pounds to go to make it 33 pounds by my birthday. I am really looking forward to celebrating this goal. I am doing well with working out. I walk every morning between 4 and 4:30 am. I walk for 3.5 miles. On the weekends I walk 6 miles. just this week, I started walking the tramway route, up to paradise point. It is tough but you feel great after you are done. Those hills really work you out. I am just preparing myself for 8 tuff miles in st. john on saturday. All i want is to cross that finish line and to get my t-shirt. My walking partner carol and I are still going strong. I am confident that this is the last year for me to go up and down with my weight . Around this time last year I was on the same track and made it all the way down to 240 pounds. Therefore, this year I hope to surpass that point and to keep the weight off. Thanks to everyone for all of their support.

I made it

Its been awhile since I have updated this page. I have been working out seven days a week. My friends carol and lester are keeping me motivated. It feels great after I am finished though. This weekend I had the pleasure of participating in the 'Women's Jogger Jam. it was a 2 mile walk or run. I was so happy to be part of the Kean challenge team and to share this time with my friend carol and her daughter kinisha. I finished the couse in 31 mins. 32 seconds. I was a bit winded after the first round. I believe it was due to fatigue. I walked earlier that morning at 5am, a 6 mile course, came home did laundry and other housekeeping things so I did not get any rest at all. It felt good to jog across that finish line and get my tshirt..lol. Anyway, i think i like this walk/run competition thing. Iam going to try and participate in more of them. I am looking to sign up for karate classes also. until next time be good, live healthy and love life.
