One lb down, 7 to go!

I mentioned last week that my scale was weighing in a slightly lighter me, but I wanted to double check on the gym scale.  Well I haven't been forgetting, it's just the scale at the gym has been broken.  They finally brought in a replacement scale yesterday and he has confirmed what I hoped was true... I lost another pound!  Finally!  I know one pound might not sound like a lot, but I had lost 5 lbs so quickly and then couldn't get below 123.  So, for me this is a big accomplishment! 

I also started running again last night on the treadmill in order to prep for the race in May.  I remember now why I switched from running to the elliptical.  My knee is killing me - thank you Daddy for my weak joints!  (He's had two surgeries on each of his ankles and two on each of his shoulders.)  I pushed through and ran 3 miles, but 1.5 of those was in sheer agony.  I think I'll slowly get myself back into running so I don't end up killing my knee altogether and giving up.  So,it's back to my usual 6 miles on the elliptical today so that I can actually enjoy dance class tomorrow.

Have a good day!
