yes. regardless of whether or not it's successful, it's rather pathetic to be posting it as a positive any more

Bought a new SUV - a 2008 Honda CRV EXL - Is it possible to be in love with a vehicle?

I have been such a slacker lately, but I made it back to the gym today and I got to weigh myself and I am down to 156! 6 more to my realistic weight Yay!

My body fat went from 38.5 to 25! I am very happy about those numbers!

It's so close I can taste it!

But I am STILL not at my look good naked level.

back in the pool today after a weekend/start of the week with some weird fallout: low blood sugar, high stress, tiredness, headaches, dizziness... either a bout of hypoglycemia or overtraining? i dunno. but it's good to be back, easing it in.

My positive:

Well...oh I know...my blood pressure is almost back into the normal range. YAY! And I moved in with my best friend temporarily, who has a wii, so there's some supplemental working out that's super convenient!

And despite the current turmoil in my life, I'm extra ready to start hitting the gym again. Now if I could only find my workout clothes amongst the chaos...

My positives today.

1. I can float on my back now. (Don't laugh. I could not do it before.)
2. My swimming instructor said my legs have a lot of muscle. That's why the lower part of my body does not float like the upper body. It means I have runner legs now. He does not know I run regularly.

I saved my eleventy billionth Turtle from getting crushed by traffic this morning. I live in Central Florida, U.S. and there is water everywhere here. I love it when the people I have road blocked look at me with that, "you hippy tree hugger!* look for holding them up to help a turtle get across the road.

WOO WOO!!!! I finished my first 5K this year and beat my time from last year!!!!!!!!

42:29 made under a 14 minute mile!!! I made my first goal.

(I ran about 70% of it) I did not run the whole thing, but I am happy with what I did -- it was a hillier course than I thought, and the wind Saturday was killer.

I had the 2nd part of my swim evaluation last night and it was great. This guy is a great coach - a little disorganized, but great at instructing. Hopefully my swim time will significantly improve as a result.

i had my first absolute bicycle WIPEOUT this morning, it was intense. picking out gravel and asphalt from my knee was awesome.

it was a similar feeling to when i started getting callouses on my fingers playing guitar. or when my rat tail distincted itself from a mullet. i knew, at that moment, i am a star.

hm. new (bigger) shoes. experimenting with strap-tightness. my riding partner calling out 'oh god!' me looking back to see what happened, turning to the right, and hitting a curb without being able to take my foot out to catch myself.

i'm fine, it was awesome. i'm still bleeding since 6:45 this morning, though. but i mean what, just drink some juice and take iron right? i followed the hit with sprint hill repeats, altogether a 9.4 mile ride. i was a bit stiff afterward, but it's all scrapes and tightened skin. my hip and elbow feel worse, but they aren't involved in biking, running, and swimming...
