Losing it all the hard way

An occasional update of the highs and lows of weight odyssey.

Blog supplemental...

I wrote this morning because I missed my entry for Monday. Tonight, we get back on track. Today, I pushed harder than I have since beginning this journey. I had been walking based on distance but somewhere in the mix I started walking based on continuous time. For example, I marked off 50 minutes in mind by adjusting for time with the help of a playlist on my mp3 player. Up to today, I had been satisfied with those minutes. Today, I went over an hour. I have to admit I was scared yet a little exhilarated. Am I a touch tired now? Yes, but I pushed further. I accomplished the "next" thing. I almost feel invincible. Tomorrow, I begin working with weights that are heavier than my thirty at home. I'm beginning to feel the effects of my slowly shrinking self in that I must begin to tone. Another accomplishment will soon be realized.

So what is it like to know that in just a very few short weeks that I will feel healthier than I ever have? It feels wonderful. There's just no other words to describe it.

I feel the work of God in me through this journey. To be able to repair the temple, gives me yet another important purpose in life. Perhaps one day, I can show others how to begin their journey. I guess I'll leave that for another day.

October 30? It will be here before anyone knows it.
