I don't like the WW@W scale as much as the one in my bathroom. Or it could be that 6am in the morning it just reads a little better than 11am. None the less I am moving forward at a reasonable pace. I know others had great success right off the bat. Which is great for them. Me, I am enjoying this slower pace. Plus I know a lot of it has to do with changes in my exercise regime.
Which brings me to a bit of an observation. This year was my year to focus on my physical activity. Most people know that I am all about sitting down reading a book and taking a test. I can make all sorts of time to study. And I have done that over a number of years - degree, designations, licenses... So this year was the get off the couch, get out from behind the desk, get away from the library year. And I struggled with it. I had guilt most of the time. That I was wasting time foucsing on myself. Putting other things on the back burner. Trying to get a balance. And it has recently been pointed out to me. And not in a good way. I was floored - some will even say truly upset. And it finally hit me - I did exactly what I set out to do - swam that pool, peddled my ass up that damned hill and even started trying to run. The next goal - to not let others get to me when I need to take care of myself... Not to guilt me into thinking taking care of myself is less important than their agendas. Ahhh- this one may be even toughter than running. Wish me luck.
