Penguin Non Grata

One day I will get around to posting a real update… but for now, and until things are a little less hectic (how about when I graduate in two years?) this is what you get!

I had my third weigh-in today… and… *drum roll*

*building anticipation*

I lost 5.8 pounds this week!!! Which brings me to a 4 week total of 11.2 pounds! Only 100 more to go and I’ll be set. I know it sounds like a lot, but now that I know what to do to get my body to cooperate, it’s really not that intimidating to me. I’m thinking that this can easily be done within a year… give or take a few months.

… and on a side note: I’ve been walking a lot (at school and for fun) and today I even jogged a little bit. Imagine that! Me, jogging! I haven’t done that since our hellish volleyball practices in high school. Gotta start (again) somewhere, right?

I hesitate to say anything for fear of the weight loss jinx… but I just have to share. I started weight watchers last Wednesday. I had my first weigh in today and came in at *drum roll* 4.2 pounds lost!! I know that kind of a loss is not something that I can sustain (nor is it healthy to do so) week after week, but it gives me hope. And boy do I need hope right now!
