One month down!!

So I have lost 10lbs!! I am feeling good. Why don't I ever think to take before and after pics? So I can be those cool people with those awesome weight loss blogs?? Oh well. I am still tracking. I really need to buy a digital scale though. I am worried that it is going to be way different as far as my weight and I am going to CRY!! I also started Couch25K, (C25K), I downloaded the app on my phone! I am not planning to run a 5k anytime soon it has just helped me get off my butt! I am repeatint week 2 because week 3 requires 3 min of non-stop running and there was NO way I was ready for that!! Running is HARD but I am doing it... I am not pretty by any means but as folks drive by in my head I think to them, "Hey you are driving, don't judge!!"

Buckling Down

On January 8 I decided I was tired of squeezing into pants that were a size I didn't like and started using an app on my phone called My Fitness Pal! WOW it is working!! It allows me to scan the barcode on things and basically all I am doing is watching my calories. I have lost 6 pounds so far!! I am so thrilled! I put on a pair of jeans yesterday I had never worn! I had bought them at the church thrift store and they had never fit. They fit GREAT!! What an AWESOME FEELING!!!

My goal is to loose at least 20lbs. Eventually I am hoping to start playing tennis again but I have had a little snafu with the TSTA. They ranked me as a 4.5 player because I played in College and I wasn't even a 4.5 player then! I have asked for a refund because there is no place here in town that I can even get on a court to play with that rating. WHAT A MESS!! But playing tennis will up my exercise and help with the weight loss!! HURRAY!
