A New Beginning!

Okay, it's not the beginning.  It's a New Beginning!

On my post yesterday I said that I wasn't going to weigh-in until two weeks from then, but then I got thinking about why I wanted to wait that long and I decided it was because I was afraid of the scale and I wanted to do a lot of walking and eating right before I did that.  Basically, I wanted to loose weight so that I'd feel better about loosing weight . . . 

Make sense??  Yeah, it didn't make a lot of sense to me either.

So this morning I pulled out the scale . . . and I ran away and hid for a while.

But then I came back and weighed myself and it wasn't as bad as I thought.  I weighed 300.8 pounds, which means I didn't gain all the weight back I had lost.

So, for all you new folks out there (and myself) let’s go over the rules once again.  According to this blog’s first post the rules are:

“Each time I work out (gym, swimming, going for a walk or hike etc) for 20 minutes or more I earn one download on iTunes.  Each pound I lose I earn $1 towards new clothes.  However, if I gain weight, each pound I gain will result in $1 lost in that account and if I don't work out at least twice a week I will loose one of my iTunes downloads.” 

I’ve decided to start the iTunes count over again, but I’m going to keep the $1.80 that I would have earned if I had gained the weight back while actually blogging.

  1. Yeah! You are back to blogging again. Your hike sounds like so much fun! My husband and I go down there a lot so we may have to find this place that you speak of and hike it. Good luck on your journey!

  2. It was a great hike! I would recommend it as long as you're not afraid of heights, because it was quite steep at the end. When you come down let me know and I can tell you how to get to the trailhead.
