Well, that was cool.

Last night was my first night back at school for the semester, and as usual I had to park about a block and a half away from the building my classes are in, plus I had to make a trip to a building another block away (or thereabouts). For the first time, despite it being in the upper 90's outside, I *walked* across campus instead of *trudging*, if you can understand the difference. It's a subtle difference, but it's something noticable!! And all because of WISH inspiring me to stick with my exercise program. I may not have made my goal yet of being able to climb the stairs without losing my breath, but I'm getting closer!!

Thanks everyone!!!

That's great to hear! I definitely know the difference b/w walking and trudging. I stopped back on campus yesterday to get my books so I could read before class tomorrow and I too was able to walk the 2 city blocks to the building and climb 1 flight of stairs without trudging or huffing. I was wearing the wrong shoes for that kind of walking but other than that I was doing fine. I'm sure that every week the walk and stairs will get easier.

Congrats....I get it feels good to have a little bounce back in your step.

Keep up the good work!

that's so great for you..........i know what it was like walking across campus when I first gained the 60lbs. I started to lose......and it was horrible. I was out of breathe and I didn't want anyone to see me huffing and puffing.........it was embarrassing. I am going back to school in January and by then I will have met my goal and will be in much better shape. Hope I'll be telling you that same story!!
Again, congrats.........that had to feel good and I'll bet it just inspired you more to keep going!!!!!!! Great Job. And good luck in school!

Have A Disney Day!!!!!!
