This past semester was really tough on my healthierness plan and even though I was technically exercising regularly I actually gained a bit of weight back... I had to buy new pants at TJMaxx so that I could fit clothing comfortably, and I am finally working on getting back to where I was before.
Ironically, after all that time, a solid year of self-motivation, it is motivation which is lacking for me. I have gotten back on running, but not with the same excitement as before. Trying to drive to Texas for Christmas messed up my knee and I wasn't able to run most of the semester. I'm forcing myself to do it now, and my knee seems fine. My real motivation is actually that my friend Karey is helping me plan a schedule and being my exercise partner. I've been running with her to take her daughter to school and then doing P90x with her after. We'll see how that goes, but I will say in the last week of getting back on track I have managed to get back down another five pounds from where I was last time I checked. Not the past posting, but just recently weighed in I mean...
Anyways I hope future postings will be more positive than this. While at camp this summer I plan to run and exercise when I can, plus I'm working in the backpacking unit during third session so that should be good exercise!
I am thrilled that you are posting again!!! I missed you in your absence. I better see a new blog at least bi-weekly after you're done with camps missy!! Keep on trucking, you are my hero and the reason I started running in the first place. Just think of my face when you're running-- I'm screaming "RUN!!! FOR THE LOVE OF BOB BEING A PUMPKIN-- RUNNNN!!!!" I think anyone other than you reading this might be a tad disturbed.... oh well, glad to have you writing again, GOOD LUCK!
