CalorieKiller's Journal, 19 October 2007

Arrgghhhhhh. This week has been savage. I've been starving all week. I can't figure it is anything different except the weather cut-over... It's been cold and rainy here all week. I've decided in the next couple weeks it is time to take my workouts outside. I've been using a treadmill inside and it is a great tool for conditioning and working out, but I've never dropped pounds as efficiently as when I'm hitting the pavement outside a few times a week. It just seems to work twice as fast as a treadmill. "Experts" seem to say it's something about the slopes, wind resistance, heightened awareness -- all of this combines to burn more calories. Sigh. But I'm nervous because I'm still pretty heavy and I don't know how far I can go and I'm feeling a little self-concious running in my neighborhood for the first time. I don't know where this is coming from. I'm just kind of putting it off...

Hi I went on Jenny Graig and lost 80 pounds. That was when I was 33 years old. Now I am retired from nursing being a RN for the last 23 years of my life. And 52 years old I have just been married a year and have found my soulmate.Now I have time to cook healthy so I am doing my own diet. Take a look at it.And have lost 20 pounds I am doing pretty good the main thing is you have to move. Right now I am doing 60 mins of walking.I feel so much better and doing great. You don't worry about the neighbor's, Just keep on thinking about that beautiful dress.You hang in there you are doing great baby fat is hard to lose. You are doing awesome. Check out my diet and let me know how you are doing. Have a good weekend. SeaDog

OH MY GOD! For some reason your 2 photos made me want to click on and check you out....First of all, your graph is AMAZING....do you see the journey you are on for a better you? The PATH....for me is that I will envison the journey, but get taken off track with something (ANYTHING!) to make it that i'm NOT being my best. I think it is FANTASTIC that you are able to show the before and after photos. I had my son take 10-15 photos for my bio for this website and was laughing when I was looking at them and noticed in 8 out of 10 photos I had my black- sunglasses on...it made me ask....why and what am I still hiding to show people the REAL me~ You were the next person I viewed on this sight and I have to tell you....YOU ARE INSPIRING and I have NO doubt you will obtain ALL you short and long-term goals! Are you in advertising or publication? Sounds like the kind of hours my husband works...

Thanks for the comments. It is always really nice to get encouragement, especially when I'm having a buggary week. I'm not usually such a wuss about getting outside and running. I'll simply have to overcome it. I'll let you know when I do, and I'll check out your diet seadog.
