Oh, thank heavens! This was about to be a seriously depressing post. Nearly 2 weeks into my 5K training and I stepped on the scale today and it still says 245lbs. I am beginning to feel that I am destined to forever be this weight. No matter how hard I try that number just doesn't want to budge. I felt like crying. It seems as though the only way for me to shed the weight is to literally starve myself, and lets be honest, I ain't going to do that. But then I thought I'd better measure myself. I was super scared to do it. If the numbers were the same then I would really have cause to cry. But, glory be! I have lost partial inches all around!!
my new numbers are as follows
Waist 45.25"
Hips 50.25"
Bust 47"
My original number can be found here.

5K-W2-D1
I was supposes to train yesterday. but since my hubby left at 5am, I couldn't very well go out at 6:30am and leave the kids. And there was no way I was getting up at 4:30am to get it done. So today it was.
It was cold this morning. I had figured by starting training for the 5K in April I would miss all the cold well below 0C mornings. But this is not the case. So far only one morning has the temperature reached above 0C. I can only hope that soon Spring will actually arrive. However in spite of the cool temperature this morning it was beautiful. I love the feeling of the sun coming up over the horizon. And although I did not get as much sleep last night as I would have liked to, I am feeling pretty good this morning. I hope to see some change on the scale soon, or at least in my measurements. On top of training for the 5K, the girls and I have also taken on a flyer route. We deliver to all of Milk River. The first week(last week) it took us a total of 5 hours and we walked about 5 miles. I've been trying to eat smart. I haven't been tracking my food, I've just been trying really hard at eating what I know I should be eating and the right amounts and leaving out the stuff I know I shouldn't eat. I know that I will not track what I eat for the rest of my life, so I've decided that I've got to be smart on my own. This shouldn't be hard. I know what and how much of things I should be eating. I've lost weight before with out tracking everything, I can do it again.
OK, this post was a bit all over the place. Just babbling through stuff that was on my mind I guess.
