Sandy701's Journal, 03 May 2011

Walked 3.3 miles in the summer-type humidity. At least it was mostly cloudy and there was a breeze. Still it felt like having sauna towels all over.

Good news is that all my exertion outside yesterday dropped me into the 168's....barely, but I'll take it.

AND, when I was walking and just a few houses from home, a male neighbor I had not met before, stopped me to compliment my walking dedication and to say, albeit cautiously, that he thought I had lost a lot of weight and that it showed. We then talked about weight issues for a bit. Made my millenium!! (Don't worry anyone....he talked about his girlfriend, and mentioned DH, so I know he wasn't trying to hit on me. Just a nice, friendly guy.)

w00t!! 168's..that is awesome. Congrats and great work. Glad that the neighbor took the time to stop and tell you he could tell how hard you are working. It makes it that much easier to keep going when we know it shows. Have a great day!

Melissa, Stef & Bren, It IS nice when others notice the results. I try to be my own motivator and believe that I don't need others' approval, but is sure is gosh darn nice when it happens!! Esp. since my family is small and far away and friends (who might feel comfortable enough mentioning it) are few and far between when the military moves us every 2-3 years!

Mustlovedogs (and, BTW, I do): Thanks for the kind words. I truly wish I had done as you've done and taken measurements when I started and at various times along this path. Of course, I'm accumulating a pile of clothing that's now too big but it's not like being able to say I've lost X number of inches. Keep up your good work as well!
