So this morning, as quietly as I could so I didn't wake the baby, I jumped and danced and partied in my bathroom after I stepped onto our scale. I have not seen the # number that was on the scale since my (second) senior year of college when I was in the best shape of my life. I try not to be consumed by the number but it's nice to see that all of the life changes to be healthier and set a good example for my daughter are paying off (and the breast feeding helps - a lot.) I am completely surprised that I'm here and can only imagine what else I can accomplish. There is still some weight to lose before I'm in a range that my doctor and I would like for me to be in but we are getting there. It's amazing the motivation that Miss Olivia has provided me with. She'll be doing a lot of wonderful things in her big beautiful life and I want to be there for all of them so I need to make sure I take care of me as well as her.
On that same note I have 8 more days til I go to the doctor and hopefully get the all clear to kick start running again. I'm itching to get back on the trail and start training again, and even got a stroller fan for Olivia because lets face it, it's hotter than Hades in Texas this year. Maybe the heat will be my motivation to run faster and get out earlier.
