Ouch

My first migraine seems to be leaving the building, finally. It arrived on Monday afternoon and has been lingering all week. Hence, I haven't even been thinking about my steps. Looks like I'll be trying for 4,000 a day starting again next week.

I hope you all are doing much, much better!

Bounce. Bounce. Bounce. Yipee!

Today is donut Wednesday.
I walked to to the donut trough with my usual Wendesday morning crew.
I stood and chatted while they all selected their yummies.
I walked away empty handed.

TRIUMPH!

So why was it so easy to overcome the nagging custard beast after all these weeks?

Today, I was armed with the knowledge that I've lost 10lbs.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Not enough for me to even notice without the help of my scale, but dammit that's the most motivational discovery there is for continued healthy eating and more frequent exercise. Turns out hiking with Phil and Lola really was a much better idea than hiding in our air conditioned house eating bowls of ice cream.
