Day 1...the official start and posted stats



BEWARE: Disturbing picture below!

So today is the official first day with stats. I was weighing and measuring this morning after Jacob and Ben went to school and before Joseph went to school and Joseph decided he wanted in on this too. Anything that looks like competition to him and he's in. At first I told him I'd take his measurements later but knowing that would probably happen days from now, I decided why not so I weighed him and took his measurements. I will be including those here and posting updates for him as well. He has decided he doesn't want to play basketball this winter so maybe this will be something for him to focus on. I will admit, I was surprised when he got on the scale. That was not the number I wanted to see for him.


I went ahead and dressed in my workout clothes and have even looked at some 5K races that are taking place within the next couple of months. I feel like if I go ahead and sign up for one, I will have that to look forward to but the anxiety is quite high. I was reading someone's blog yesterday who was really obese when he ran his first 5K only 17 days after starting any kind of walking/jogging and made it so even though it might take me 42.36 mins (my last mile took me 14.12 mins), I know I will cross the finish line. LOL

As my friend Kat says, that's my waxing strip on my belly. LOL Weird sunning at the beach but hey, I wore a bikini top. The first time my belly has seen the light of day since 1989! =)
