WHEW!

I am happy to report that I did not get kicked out!!! WOO!! But the bad news is I have to be down ~11 lbs by September 1st. Good bye cookies and candy, hello working out again.

I can do this, right?

Back in the saddle.

I am still disappointed in myself, but yes, I do realize that I have made great progress. I just like to meet goals, especially if they are random.

I am still not sure if I am still in the program, but I am going to still pretend I am, err, starting tomorrow. As today I ate a cheese burger for lunch (and frankly it was not worth it).

BUT, I signed up for another race. I say race, but for me they are just organized events and my only goal is to finish. The latest is the Deseret News 10k. This will be year number 3 for me and I am in my best shape yet, but again, I just want to finish. Which maybe harder this year than past years, since my mom/10k buddy may or may not sign up. She is usually my motivator. I guess this year I will have music fill her role.

With all the events I have signed up for, I have had an event once a month since April. Here is the breakdown.

April - 5k

May - Bike ride (30 miles)

June - TRIATHLON! (I'm still a little proud, though I will push myself harder next year)

July - 10k

August - 5k

September - ??

October - HALF MARATHON!!

So as you can read, I need an event in September. These are my criteria, something I can do, a reasonable price and not too far from home. Any ideas?

Failure

Well, I failed. I hate failing, but it happens a lot in my life, so I should be use to it, but I never am. I missed my goal by 2.5 pounds. I am still awaiting my fate in the Waist-A-Weigh program, but as of now, I am pretty sure I am out of it. I am discouraged, but I'll get over it right?
