It's that time again and I'm happy to report things are going well. I stepped on the scale this morning and realized I haven't been this small since my wedding day, five years ago. I'm only 11 pounds away from my goal weight and what had seemed so unrealistic when I had begun is now just within my grasp. It would be an absolute dream come true if I could meet my goal weight by February, exactly one year since starting my new lifestyle. It seems like plenty of time but as I had expected my progress has slowed, I've gone from losing 4 lbs a month to 2 lbs and there isn't much I can do about it since my body has gotten used to my new activity level.
I'm worried about how this change in weather will affect my exercise routine. No matter how hard I try, I just can't get myself to run in 40 degree weather, so my 3 day a week jogging routine is out of the window except on the rare mild evening. I'll have to find alternate ways to exercise. I'd love to join the gym at UK, I can get a deal as the spouse of a student but I'll have to wait to sign up until the spring semester starts. In the meantime, I'll be taking those six flights of stairs at work every day and popping in an exercise video at night. I'm sure these last 11 pounds are going to be a real struggle to lose but I know I can do it, I've already lost three times that amount ( 32 lbs )!
