Love your outlook on the Super Walmart. So true, so true! Personally, I think it takes way too long to shop there and you come out more tired than had you gone to 5 different stores.

It's so AWESOME that you were able to go down on your meds. That is always good news. Isn't it amazing what weight loss and a better lifestyle can do for you?

You are doing great and it is so nice to see how much you have lost since starting your weight loss journey. What an inspiration!

Have a great day!

Have a wonderful day!

You're doing really really great at staying OP. I'm impressed w/ your fruit/veg consumption - that's my downfall. Your exercise is great, too. You're doing it! Doesn't it feel good??

It was a R3/W2 day for 50 min plus warmup and cool down. I completed 3.65 miles giving me a pace of about 16 min and 30 seconds per mile. This running for 3 minutes thing kind of took me by surprise. I was about to go out the door and do the usual W3R2 sequence but I went to check to book just to make sure. I stared at the book for about 5 minutes. I thought "this must be a typo". In the back of my mind I was remembering how difficult it was when I changed to running 1 min to 2 min. I was a little unsure. I got out there and did it anyway. And you know what, it wasn't so bad . I hardly even noticed it. I guess the longer you run, the more your body gets used to it! Oh yeah, and this was the first time I went out on the streets downtown to do my running and walking. It was lots of fun and the time seemed to pass by a lot faster. I don't know if I will ever use my TM again.
2. Did not stay up and active all day. It was memorial day so we grilled out and had a nice family lunch, then we kinda lazed around all day.

It was a Xtraining day for 40 min. I had planned to ride my bike but it was all muddy outside and I didn't feel like getting mud slung up on my butt. Anyway, I did 15 min of Strength training exercises in the morning time. Then I went shoe shopping in the afternoon. We're talkin' some vigorous shoe shopping (not for the fainthearted). I needed to find some new running shoes. I finally ended up finding the same kind I already had (newbalance 401 running shoes) so I just bought them. I went a little crazy though. I bouught 3 pair. They were only 39 dollars a pair . I was a good deal. I figured that would get me through till next summer. After I got home, I did 25 more min of strength training exercises.
2. Stayed up and active most of the day. I went shoe shopping (I'm sure you know what I mean).
