Left: 2008, 90ish Lbs heavier. Right: Today

• Sometimes, you just need a little perspective. I found some today via the photo on the left. I’m doing just fine on this whole weight-loss journey I do believe. 
• Evidently I just needed the Nutrition Store guy to make me feel bad about myself a few weeks ago, because as of today, I’m down 8 Pounds! I don’t think I really don’t need to lose the 20 pounds he said I do, but as I’ve documented here, I’ve been trying to lose about 10 pounds for awhile now. I’m so close to my goal, it’s awesome. 
• I found out on Friday that my work travel has doubled this summer! So far I’m going to Arizona in May. I hope to meet this-incredible-journey​ too! Then Seattle in June for 4 days, and 10 days after that I’ll head to Orlando, FL for a work conference for another 4 days. After that, it looks like I’m going to Sequoia National Park for a trip with some of the members in August for a week. I’m so freakin’ excited!

• I have to run 40 miles this week. Ooof. That hurts. Oh Hanson’s and your cumulative fatigue. 
• I’m getting another sports massage on Wednesday. I’m hoping that this one does not put me down for the count like the one I got last month did.
• My weekends are beginning to fill up again…baby showers, bridal showers, and my birthday is 2 weeks from today!!! 
• The time change is this weekend! I like that extra hour of sunlight in the evenings! It makes it so much easier to get outside and run.

That’s all I have for you today…Have a great day friends!
