Day 75: Are you ready for it?

As the title reads, are you ready for it??? And by "it" I mean the results of today's weigh-in. I lost another 2 pounds!!! That brings me up to a grand total of 18pounds! YAY!!! I am so excited. :) I definitely think I will be able to lose 2 more pounds before my Mom gets here on the 19th so that we can go for spa pedis together! :) I can't wait for a pedicure...my toes are looking so dull in my new flip-flops without any nail polish. Speaking of new flip-flops, I MUST mention how much I LOVE my new Crocs flips. They made a flip-flop just as comfy as their regular shoes, only not so umm, fugly. I knew when I finally got my first pair of Crocs in December that I should have jumped on that bandwagon a long time ago. My feet have missed out on so much comfort. It took me that long to give in and to admit that their comfort far outweighed their less than stylish look. But I am pleased to announce that the flip-flops are cute AND comfortable. Oh ya, and my foot that's been hurting...it doesn't hurt in my new flip-flops! Who knew? I wonder how much longer I could keep going on about these shoes....???

On another note, I did my workout today but I had to cut it a little short. I have been trying to Skype with my Mom the last 3 days and have had to cancel 2 times. By the time I got around to my workout today it was cutting it real close to our agreed-upon meeting time. I only managed to get in about 35 minutes today but I pushed it and walked at a 10% incline almost the entire time. I only burned 507 calories and only went about 2.3 miles but it's better than I used to do. And at least I did something today, right? I don't know why I'm so hard on myself sometimes. It's like I'm beating myself up for not completing a whole hour. I have to keep reminding myself how far I've come in just 11 weeks and that 35 minutes at a 10% incline is WAY better than sitting on the couch or napping like I used to do. I guess my Mom is right; when I've committed myself to something I want to achieve, there is nothing that will stop me until I get what I want. I guess I've always seen things like that (such as not completing a full workout) as set backs that just put me a step behind getting to my goal. Somethings never change. The only thing that has changed is my motivation to get thin. :)
