Congrats to everyone making such awesome progress!!
Well, I've clearly gone backwards. Look: one year ago. And to think I got as low as 253.
At least I can say I put my first $1.00 into my challenge jar. I went back to the gym. Tonight, at minute 36 out of 60 on the treadmill, I felt it. The old adrenaline rush I love so much. My heart rate was at 150 and I sustained it for 20 minutes. That's my high intensity cardio level for my age/weight. My mile was slow, 30 minutes, and my speed was only 3.0 (with a 3.0 incline), but I had no leg muscle pain (thank you stretches) and I was THERE.
I've been looking back at the year's blog to understand the trend of my loss and gain rollercoaster. I think one part of the problem is as a writer, I'd rather write about my struggle then actually do something about it. SO....writing will now become yet another reward, to be done after exercising or meditation.
OMG, the weather man just said....SNOW! YES! BRING IT ON!

Just a Lovable Party Girl
Sagittarius is born to travel the world and move upwards and outwards. Naturally gregarious, they love the idea of meeting different people and understanding foreign cultures. There is also a desire to broaden the mind too, with the possibility of many Sagittarians being lifelong students. Their outlook is generally optimistic and there is a distinct lack of concern over the smaller, practical details. A great sense of humor and a lack of petty mindedness are Sagittarian qualities too. Sagittarius is open -- open-minded, open-hearted and generous, up to a point. They like to get value and will not be quite so impulsive with their cash but they do have a natural ability to get on with people from many varied walks of life. They have an innate sense of wanting to help others and give them a hand up the ladder and can be wonderful and exciting companions. Expect an honest answer when you ask a question and maybe some long philosophic discussions into the night. Jovial, optimistic, versatile, open-minded, philosophical, sincere, frank, visionary.

Awesome! I think the hardest part about working out is actually GETTING to the gym. Once you're there, you're set.
You had a great work out and I bet you feel like a million bucks.
I too would rather write about success than report back that I failed myself.
Seeing as you're so excited for snow, I am offering you, free of charge, all the Canadian snow set to fall across the country. Don't thank me, it's my pleasure =)
P.S: My loss last week was 1.8
Woo-Hoo!!! You did it! I am so proud of you. You kick ass and I know your gonna stay on track.
Keep it up D! I know you can!
Way to go! I have a serious problem getting my butt up and exercising. I know about the rush you wrote about, I get it too when I am doing it - I just have a hard time actually doing it!
I can't share in your excitement about the snow though - I hate it.
Good luck starting over!
I've been sitting on my butt for 2 hours trying to convince myself to work out....and now that I've read your post, I'm motivated and going to do one of my Billy Blanks DVD. High five! lol
Snow?!?! What's that?!?!? Actually I have another friend in Jersey who emailed me a picture of the snow they got earlier today! She said it was messy - sleet and ice too. Yuck.
