time
I walked 4 miles this morning in 68 minutes! My daughter is very proud of me right now. Have to get it down to 4 miles in 60 mintues but considering 3 months ago it took me 30 minutes to just walk 1 mile - I'm making progress.

TGIF
Thank goodness it Friday. And May 29th to boot. I can't believe how fast the time is going.
Well, I went to the doctors last week - and all this excising is paying off. She scared the crap out of me in December and finally decided I needed to take control of my life again. Plus, I'm doing the 1/2 marathon next January. My numbers were 13/26 - 13 lbs in the past 3 months - a total of 26 since the beginning of the year. I was hoping for more - but the doctor said 1 lb a week is good. Plus she pointed out muscle weighs more that fat.
Blood pressure - 100/70, so she took me off my blood pressure medicine - yeah. My A1C number came down from 6.3 (borderline diabetic) to 5.8 - normal. My cholesterol and tricycerides came down too. She was very happy for me. My BMI can down 3 points too. She wants me to loose 80 lbs more!! OH MY GOODNESS! But she says i can do it. the UPSIDE is, I'm in pants I haven't worn in 2 years. I know to look at me - I don't look like I've lost weight - It's not like a skinny minnie now, but I feel good. And better yet, I feel good about myself. I feel like I have control of my life that I lost 2.5 years ago. Even though I never thought this would be my life right now - I'm happy.

Floss Away Bags
I love floss away bags. I don't know why, but usually when I'm in AC Moores or Joanne's and have a coupon - I buy a bag. With they coupon they are less than $3 a bag - you can't let a coupon go to waste, can you?
Well, I just found a box that I hadn't unpacked - ok, let's not go there. But in it I found 3 bags of floss away bags - 3 bags of 100 each. That's a total of 300!! That's not including all the ones I have in other places. So, I confess - I'm addicted to floss away bags!! What else could it be?
When a natural disaster strikes - I'm set. I have the floss away bags.
PS - I walked 3.5 miles today in 63 minutes. I have to get down to 4 miles in 60 minutes. I'm getting there.
