this weight thing

I WAS WORRIED ABOUT THE WEIGHT THING ALSO, BUT LET ME TELL YOU WHAT I HAVE NOTICED THESE LAST COUPLE WEEKS, WHEN I WAS UP AND DOING MY RUNNING AND WALKING,, AND GOING 5 MILES, I DIDNT LOSE A POUND, BUT THE CLOTHES WERE MUCH LOSER AND FOLKS TOLD ME I WAS LOSING THE WEIGHT, WELLLLLL, SINCE I HAVENT DONE MUCH OF ANYTHING FOR THE LAST MONTH AND EATING ABOUT THE SAME, I LOST 5 LBS, BUT THE CLOTHES WERE LITTLE MORE SNUG THAN BEFORE, DOESNT MAKE MUCH SENSE IF I HADNT BEEN READING WHAT MARK HAD BEEN WRITING ALL THIS TIME, THE BODY IS CHANGING, I GUESS WITH THE MUSLCE BUILD UP. KINDA ALL MAKES SENSE, AT FIRST I WAS IN THIS TO LOSE THE WEIGHT BUT NOW ITS MORE, I WANT TO GET INTO SHAPE BUT I ALSO WANT TO FEEL THIS ACCOMPLISHMENT OF DOING SOMETHING THAT NOT ALOT OF FOLKS DO.
KEEP UP ALL THE GOOD WORK AND IM SURE WHEN ITS 90* IN THE SHADE AND WE ARE THERE ON AND 10 MILER WE WILL LOSE THE WEIGHT. HA
HAVE A GOOD WEEK YA'LL , SEE YA BRIGHT AND EARLY SAT MORNING..
LATER GATORS~

selfish and 3 miles

I DID SOMETHING YESTERDAY THAT I THINK FALLS UNDER OF ONE OF THE TOPICS MARK TALKED ABOUT ONCE,, BEING SELFISH. WHEN I SAY MY PRAYERS, I PRAY FOR EVERYONE BUT MYSELF, YESTERDAY WHEN I WAS TRYING TO WALK WITH OUT A LIMP, I PRAYED FOR MYSELF, HARD , BIG TIME PRAYING,, AND ASKED IF THIS IS IN THE BOOK FOR ME, ILL DO IT. TODAY I WAS ABLE TO WALK 3 MILES IN 50 MIN, I KNOW THATS NOT FAST BUT ITS A BIG ACCOMPLISMENT FOR ME. I HAVENT BEEN ABLE TO DO MUCH OF ANYTHING OF A MONTH..LITTLE TENDER, I CAME HOME AND ICED THE AREA FOR ABOUT 30 MIN AND IT HELPED. VERY ENCOURAGING. ILL BE THERE SATURDAY, I DONT THINK ILL PUSH IT AND DO THE WHOLE 6 MILES, MAYBE HALF, JUST HAVE TO SEE, I DONT WANT TO UNDO WHAT IS BETTER,
THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND GOOD WORDS,
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK,

PHYSICAL THERAPY

WOW, JUST GOT BACK FROM PHYSICAL THERAPY, I CAN SEE WHY THEY ARE PAID THE BIG BUCKS, SHE WORKED ME OVER BUT I FEEL BETTER ALREADY, TOMORROW SHE SAID I WILL WONDER WHAT HAVE I DONE,, SHE SAID MY S - I JOINT WAS VERY IRRITATED, AND THAT MUSCLE ADJACENT TO IT, STARTS WITH A P IS STRAINED, BUT SHE SAID IT COULD BE FIXED,, WHEN SHE WAS MASSAGING THAT AREA I HAD TO BITE THE PILLOW, BUT I KNOW ITS FOR MY OWN GOOD. EXERCISES 2 - 3 TIMES A DAY AND RETURN TO HER FRIDAY. AND SHE TOLD ME TO START WALKING SOME, 10-15 MIN, SO IM HEADED TO DO THAT NOW,, NOT SURE IF I CAN RUN ANYMORE, BUT IM GOING TO CHICAGO, EVEN I HAVE TO WALK, THATS FINE WITH ME. AT FIRST WHEN I TOLD HER I WAS TRAINING FOR THE CHICAGO MARATHON, SHE SAID ARE YOU CRAZY!,, BUT SHE WARMED UP AND SAID I BETTER BRING THEM A PICTURE OF ME AT THE FINISH LINE.
THIS HAS REALLY HELPED MY FEELINGS,, THAT AND ALL THE SUPPORT FROM YA'LL AND MY FAMILY,, THE HUSBAND FELT SO BAD FOR ME, HE SAID DO WHATEVER YOU HAVE TO DO TO GET YOURSELF BACK IN THE GAME, THATS A GOOD MAN, I DONT THINK ANY OF US COULD REALLY DO THIS WITHOUT SOMEKIND OF SUPPORT SYSTEM.
AGAIN THANK YOU ALL,,
