I weighed myself this morning, but did not have time to use the Wii system due to Mia waking up early and requiring a cartoon to allow me to get a shower before work. I had to use the cheap bathroom scale that we have. It appeared to read between 159 and 160, so I will go with 159.5. This was a pleasant surprise for me considering I have not weighed myself in several months. I weighed 194 pounds when I started the weight loss journey in January. The last time I weighed myself, August I think, I weighed 154 pounds. Considering I have not followed a healthy diet in almost 3 months, 5.5 pounds gained is not too bad. I would like to lose about 10 pounds though and stay around 150, which would calculate my BMI around 22, a healthy number.
On a running note, I ran 4 miles at lunch yesterday, but I felt extremely tired. I don’t know if it was the 10 mile run on Sunday or if it was just an off day, but I hope to feel better tomorrow. Have a great Wednesday everyone!

You’re off to a great start. Remember it’s not always the number, it’s how you feel, how you appear to yourself in the mirror, it’s discipline, and it’s being healthy! Great job! I haven’t weighed in a while myself. I may do that tomorrow at the gym!
Melissa was mentioning this past week how much weight you’ve lost since January. I don’t think I met you then, but way to go! Keep up the healthy lifestyle. Sucks you were tired yesterday; I ran 3 and felt good (had a pretty high HR though) but I’ve got just the slightest bit of knee pain this morning. I was kinda pushing it though, so that could be it. I’m doing 6 today and I’m going to go at marathon pace (9:30-10:00, give or take) and not push it.
Good luck on your run today!
I hate weighing myself. I always feel like I weigh more than I think I should. I have been pleasantly surprised at how my jeans have been fitting, though!
we missed your 2nd weigh in yesterday. I’m sure you just forgot to blog it…
