257 Days

Ok there is 257 days until the marathon, so on Oct 13 there is 200 days. So I am going to push until Oct 13 to see how far I can get, weight wise and running wise. I will watch everything I put in my mouth and I will shoot for running 5 days a week. I don't think I can, I KNOW I CAN!

Ok my friend!!
Keep a food journal and be really honest with yourself.
I will have a hunt at home because I know I had a spare one somewhere, if I find it will bring it with me.
Then get someone to look at it each week/month.
If you are honest it really works and you know I hit target a couple of years ago!!
See you in a week!!

See you soon, I am having a great day right now. I do track on line with WW, but as you said be honest..... I am starting today. Margo moved today so Margo and I are walking tonight and I am jogging in the morning with her and Meg. Can't wait! Margo and I will try to walk most evenings even if I jog in the am. I am so excited cause evenings are when I need to keep busy cause that is when I want to eat! To keeping busy!

Ok so you have me to walk with in the evenings as well or afternoon, after breakfast / dinner / tea!!
Say Hi to Margo for me.

Forgot to tell you, I phoned him today and asked him was he bringing the kids to Diane and I think it shook him that it was me.
I told him that Mum had been in hospital the same time as Dad and would dearly love to see them.
He told me that he woukd get the kids to ring her and if they wanted he would take them to her for an hour.
Diane and I thouhgt he was just bullshitting me but he proved us wrong!!
The kids did phone and she has them tomorrow morning for a few hours, good game he is playing though as he knows we are all at work.
We are having early lunch with Mum he!he!

Yaaaa way to go! Shit head doesn't stand a chance with you! I walk in the morning if I get to bed early or in the evening when it cools off, it should hit 31 today! No walking in that heat for me until I lose a lot of weight! Oh yeah and day 1 of my start was EXCELLENT! and I am just waiting for my jogging partners right now, Meg and Margo are coming with me!
