Slow and steady wins the race, and I am winning! One pound down since February 10, bringing me to a miraculous 157.1 pounds. I am thrilled. This is the weight my doctor wanted me to hit, in order not to be "overweight" according to my BMI. I realize there are problems with using BMI as a gauge, but hey, I've met my doctor's weight guideline, and that makes me happy.
In other news, a colleague convinced me to sign up for a 5K run/walk on March 13. If you had told me one year ago that I would be thirty pounds lighter and signed up for a 5K right now, I would have laughed and said you must be thinking of someone else. Mind you, I intend to WALK this one. I am going to try to run most or all of the 5K Color Run on June 25, but I am nowhere near ready for that yet!
Onward to 153!
