Lose 20 pounds

I have a growth on the top of my foot that is painful. It’s about the size of a golf ball. The xray thinks it is a bone spur. I hope I can fix it without surgery. Although recovering from surgery sounds pretty relaxing right now!

It’s tough. I’m only one week in. I have a family wedding to attend on 8/24 and I’d love to shop for a dress at least more fit and toned than I am now. A miracle would be finding a sleeveless dress I look good in. I’m killing my arms with this, so anything is possible.

I am doing a good job when I’m tracking my eating. I’m not doing well at working out. This cough is killing me. I’ll get back to it, though, when I can breathe without coughing up a lung!

and a coworker who just signed up, too, this should really get in motion. Oh, and I also signed up for a fitness challenge at work. 30 minutes a day for 2 months.

Our office is having a competition with the number of minutes we each exercise for two months. Each team has about 20 members. It is a good motivator. Last week I had 210 minutes. I’ve been walking about 4 mornings a week for 30 minutes. The problem with walking at 5am is sometimes it takes a cannon to get me out of bed!

that I weigh the same as my husband! UGGGHHHH! Must starve myself for the next year!!
