I am signed up for a 5K this weekend.
Is everyone still with me? Smelling salts?
I will be walk/jogging in a 5K this weekend. Apparently you have to exercise to lose weight. And apparently I am not so good at motivating myself to exercise. And something I never thought I would be doing is, gulp, running. Have I mentioned before that I loathe running? David and I have been “training” so we aren’t the biggest fools out there. I’m pretty sure we will be anyway, I’m ok with that.
The whole motivation is to force ourselves to like exercising and maybe lose some weight before the cruise. I have managed to lose 6 tiny, measly little pounds in two months. (here is where skinny people say I need to exercise and running is stress relief. no. I don't see you worrying about your thigh/butt Jiggle Show on display for whom ever is subjected to your running, stress relief? no. no it is not. Cupcakes are stress relief.) I would like to lose a little bit more and be in my goal jeans for the cruise. Pray for a lack of cupcakes in my path.
And I promise to update on this historic 5K jog/walk.

6 lbs is A LOT! It is not in our genes. Fat is, though. Bummer. So excited to hear how your 5K will go.
Analee,
Wow, I am impressed. You come from a long line of non-exercisers( I can speak with some authority here), so it is a big step to do a 5K. But you will have David right by your side and I will be cheering you on from my couch! Ha

PS. I have changed. I do a weights exercise almost every day. I thought I would hate it, but I have to say I don't actually hate it anymore. I don't quite love it yet, but I don't dread it as much and I visualize non-jiggling body parts.
6 lbs. may not sound like a big number but, girl, you are looking good!
