I have been doing good, and this week it really paid off! I do believe that some of Christmas finally let go, but it feels really good nevertheless!
Starting weight: 125.5kg / 276.7lb
Previous weigh-in: 112.3kg / 247.5lb
Current weight: 109.8kg / 242lb
This week's loss: 2.5kg / 5.5lb
So now I just have to keep going, right! There are things going on in my life right now that are really hard, and I can already feel how it's influencing me. I'm not ready to write about it here yet, but I'm in a really dark place at the moment, and I'm trying to get through it as best I can. What I do know, though, is that I'm not going to resolve to food for help. So there's that, at least.
Here are some photos from a hike I did Saturday. It was 10k / 6.2miles, in -7C / 19F - so it was cold. And long! It took us nearly three hours, but it was great! We hiked up to Rundemanen (568m / 1864feet), and walked down past Tarlebøvatnet (Lake Tarlebø) and Lake Svartediket. It was brilliant!

ReplyDeleteI keep telling myself. "The world seems to be imploding around me. Curveballs are flying my way and life seems to be going totally against me....but I have ONE thing I can control...and that is my eating and exercise." Focus on that and hopefully everything else will right itself on it's own!
Aw, girl...good thoughts are certainly heading your way. Whatever junk life is throwing at you now, I know you can make it through it. Hang on to that little bit of light even in this dark place in your life.
