Hello all, well, my inspiration for finally getting back on track, you may remember, was to fit into the bridesmaid dress (that I ordered 2 sizes small) by May. Since I ordered it, I have dropped ~18lbs. Tried it on and still have a bit to go to be able to zip it up, but I do have at least 8 weeks to go. However, I did have a wake up call yesterday when I was up 2lbs on the scale. I drank beer for the first time in years over the weekend. I now remember why I don't really miss it. I won't disgust you with the GI details, but it is safe to say that I won't be having beer again very soon. So, recommitting today to (true) induction levels, as there is no taking this dress back! And taking this opportunity to post for the robochallenge.

Go out and run, run, run!
Isn't that funny, I actually decided for this morning workout to pass on the elliptical and get on the treadmill. I fast walked mostly, but jogged for an entire song and a half! The only problem is, my feet screech 'HEY FAT BROAD, GET OFF US!!!' lol I am hoping that as I lose my feet can tolerate higher impact activities like powerwalking and running. However, I do have to be careful, since my livelyhood depends heavily on my being able to walk (I'm a nurse). Kristen

Are you taking bets as to how much and what kind of food you'll be eating at the wedding once your "inspiration" has outlived its purpose?
Taking bets? No. I am very sure that I will indulge in whatever is offered *at the wedding* and any activities surrounding it. The initial "inspiration" was to lose 40lbs by May. However that is not my final goal. I think that life is what happens while you are making the grand plan, so my focus isn't usually on the final point at the end of my weight loss journey, but on what is happening along the way. It is how I made it through college without driving myself nuts. Thanks for your input. Kristen
