A little sore but feeling great!!! Thurs. Jan. 28th

I am really enjoying this years challenge. Not only am I getting healthier but my husband is doing a great job and felling better also, and my kids are having fun because we drag them along and they play while we are exercising!! Fun for the whole family :)
Yestterdays run was good. A little harder than the week before because of the dry air I think... I ran 1 warm up lap (half walked half ran) and 6 regular laps and the timed lap ( shaved 5 seconds from my time!! Whoohoo!) but my last lap I felt reallt dizzy and light headed, almost to the point of tunnel vision :( boo, I feel like I could have done better. I need to start running at the gym again to work on my stamina/endurance.
So I am not droping weight as fast as I would like (never do) but I am slowing losing. I would love to drop about 5 lbs. by next weekend so I really need to push it at the gym and watch my eating. I know I can do it so I will!!! (hopefully...lol) I would love to have lost 15 lbs. from where I am now by the end of the challenge, 4 more weeks, so I really need to hunker down. Ive been good with my eating and exercising but I know I can do better. I have so much energy now that I can barley sleep at night. lol, trade offs. I need to concentrait on eating before 7:00 but it never seems to work out that way. We are a busy family with lots going on and I feel so rushed to eat by that time, but if I dont I end up gaining weight.... arggg.. Frustraiting!! I am the type of person that gains weight everywhere so in order for a loss to be noticable I have to lose a significant amount, and by that Im talking like 15 lbs. I hate the weight that I am and how uncomfortable I am with myself and I keep thinking back and wondering where I went wrong. I have steadly gained weight since high school and for me to be comfortable and at a healthy weight I need to be at least 30 lbs. lighter! and then I've only lost maybe 1 -2 clothing sizes...... bleh.. its daunting but I will succeed!!! please.... lol
Well heres hoping to a loss by next weekend, We are going to disney so I will be missing one sat. workout which is upsetting but im hoping that I can hit the gym at the hotel at some point, as long as Im not to tired, and we will be walking like a hundred mile, lol, but im really excited and so are the kids!! Thanks for all the support and comments keep them coming its a great inspiration to know so many people care. Love to you all.
