Sigh… it’s a slow go for my weigh loss.  I was super excited last week when there was a 3 pound difference, and today it was just one pound.  That’s still great, but I guess I was hoping for more.

On Sunday, I accomplished something that I am very proud of, and something that I obviously had to work towards.  I went on a 2+ mile hike up and down a mountain.  My husband and joined by some friends went to Fall Creek Falls, TN and made the trek to the bottom of the waterfall and back up again.  I can tell you, it was very challenging and it pushed me hard, but it was awesome and it felt so good to do it.  And…I would not have been able to do it a month ago the way I felt.  On the way back, I was thinking, “Man, that felt amazing!”  It was obvious to me that I am in better shape, and that the pounds and inches aren’t the only (though important) reason I am doing this - I am doing it to feel good, too, and to be able to do things that I couldn’t.
