2 down!

I hate weighing myself.  But then, I really don't know too many people that are happy to jump on the scale.  Do you?  I am down 2 more pounds from Christmas.  Woo hoo!  Well, make that Thanksgiving & Christmas & every cookie in between! 

Last night I eeked out a measly 3.5 miles on the treadmill.  Again, I stand firm in my belief that the pedometers on the treadmills are highly inaccurate, but I'm going with the low number & if it is actually more, that's even better.  It's always better to err on the conservative side!

This is all a work in progress.  The real test is in August & we will see if my plan has worked!  I think I'm setting a good base for now.  There are some things I really need to do, like more time in the pool, but it's been so cold!  I have always hated swimming in the dead of winter.  It's like you're always wet & chilled to the bone.  I'm going to have to email my friend Christie, and see what she thinks, but she probably swims 4 nights a week, so I know I'm not going to get any sympathy from her!

Tonight I'm going to spin, I forgot how much I really like that class.  Sure, it's no substitute for being out on the road, but it is a lot warmer & safer!  I think I am going to start my brick workouts in February.  I have about 3 weeks before that so I will have to get planning.  Stay warm!  & think Spring!!!!  I hope that damn groundhog doesn't see his shadow!
