Turning Point



The other day I was waiting in line to pay at Kohl's and I turned to glance at the people behind me when I caught a glimpse at an image in the mirror that I didn't recognize. A heavier middle-aged woman wearing a very unflattering lime green jacket and a pair of jeans that were too small for her. I didn't recognize her even though it was me. I instantly felt pukey when I realized who I was looking at. I could've cried.




I've only gained about 10 pounds since about March, but geez this 10 pounds looks about 50! I don't know if it's because I'm in my 40s now or what, but it looks bad.




So today is do-over day. I need to get this under control before it REALLY gets hard!




For breakfast I ate a very healthy bowl of Steel Cut Oats with some blueberries. For lunch I had 1/2 cup of rice with sweet & spicy tuna and a 1/2 apple mixed in it. And I've already done 61 minutes on the Wii Fit.




The one time I really lost the weight was when I did a combination of running (waddling, really) and Weight Watchers. So, I'm going to attempt to do it again, even though I'm 12 years older. This afternoon I'm going to start a running program for beginners that I found at kickrunners.

It's gotta work this time!
