Balancing home, work, and school has been tough at times, but it is working out because I have the energy I need by working out and eating healthy. So far so good! Thanks for listening, your awesome words of encouragement, and your inspiring stories that keep me going on the right track! More later, Kiki
That's fantastic news Kiki! Good for you and your family!

Yesterday, I put a pair of shorts on that 2 or 3 weeks ago were WAY too tight, they cut into my thighs when I sat down, and I had to lay down to zip them. They fit great yesterday!!!
This morning I put on a pair of jeans that I wore 2 weeks ago today, and again, they were tight...had to lay down to zip, etc. Today I put them on and they fit great!
This morning I was in the backyard and my dh said, "how long have you been exercising?" I do it before he gets up in the morning, so he doesn't know when or if I exercise. I told him that it's been since April 27. He asked "every day? I told him at leat 4-5 days a week. He said "well, it's really showing"

To date, I have now walked 102.57 miles there.
My average (median) walk was 4.47 miles.
Today's walking was particularly nice. The park was a sea of all manner of trees, bushes, grasses, and wildflowers, being swirled about by strong winds, under a benevolent sky.
I have also logged 26.93 miles of lawn mowing.
That's awesome! Way to go : )
Out of our beliefs are born deeds; out of our deeds we form habits; out of our habits grows our character; and on our character we build our destiny.
