Day 51

Well, I'm still a Dewd. What can I say? I was passing out at my desk. It wasn't for lack of anything important to do either! I was simply bottoming out. My ever so helpful coworkers did their best to convince me that one wouldn't hurt me in the long run, especially considering that it's the diet version, but, well, let's just say that I have more confidence in their knowledge of work related specialties than of their supposed nutritional expertise.

That, and I'm sort of stubborn.

So as punishment I decided to watch 3 full episodes of Stargate Atlantis during today's walk.

I think I'll be popping a pain pill before bed tonight.

At least the scale showed that I had made a slight recovery from yesterday's weight fiasco, just not enough to cut myself any undue slack. I'll probably go for 3 episodes tomorrow as well. Maybe I'll do it until I feel like I'm back on track; however long that takes.

I mean business. I want this weight gone. I want to hear my doctor tell me, "looks like we can take you off of Metformin!"

I've already come up with a plan for keeping the weight off once I've met my goal. I'm going to participate in as many long distance walks as I can. Be it charity events, friendly competitions, or social activities, I'll be sure to sign up for as many as I can. That way I'll have to stay in good shape for good!

It's a plan at least. I just know how easy it is to get comfortable and let the good habits die off one by one until you're back to wondering why you can't stand seeing yourself in the mirror.

Day 51: 8 miles + CD in 140 minutes.

Yeah, I ache.
