I stepped on the scale this morning and was down another pound...159.5.  I made it!  I made it into the 150's!  And sooner than expected...I had hoped to make it by tomorrow, Friday.  But I  made it today, Thursday!  Yay! 
So that makes 107 lbs lost, and 41.5 to go to get to goal.  I'm thinking at about 8 lbs/month loss that will take me about 5 more months...end of September.  My ultimate goal was to get to my goal by the end of Summer.  When is the end of Summer?  Isn't it in September?  I need a date....9/23/2007 is the day.  My goal is to be at my goal by the 22nd, so I can be true to my "goalbysummer" name.  I know I can do it.
I love reading the blogs in the morning, first thing, while my little man watches the Disney Channel.  I usually have a hard time getting started with my water-drinking, but as I'm reading the blogs it reminds me to get going on it, so I can usually down two 12 oz glasses while I'm reading.  For some reason I don't register thirst as thirst.  I usually register it as hunger.  Isn't that weird?  But then when I have that glass or two of water my stress level goes down and I realize it was just what I needed after a night of no water.  I just think better and function better when I'm drinking my water.
I did end up going running last night, even though my IPOD battery was too low to be able to use it.  I did my customary 2 miles.  As it gets easier to do somehow I translate that as "I'm not working hard enough or long enough" but I have to rest in the fact that I am.  20-30 minutes of cardio, when done right, is plenty.  I don't need to "kill myself" every time.  I am still seeing fantastic results.
Have a great day all!
