So, this started out as a poor Marcy self pity-party blog but after some thought and kicking myself in the ass I deleted what I wrote.
Instead, let's talk about the progress. Where we are. I can talk about Steve and I, but hopefully my other Idiot teammates will chime in. Because all of us have some positive things to talk about. For Steve and I , it is slow but steady progress. We are eating much better (other than an occasional Fuzzy's Taco addiction issue we are working on). Seriously though, 90% of the time we are doing the right things. Our biggest win is eating out a lot less and making smart decision. Big spinach salads for dinner every night have become the norm. Steve has brought lunch to work every day for the past 2 months. Not only better from a nutrition perspective, but saves a ton of money. I just don't keep any junk in the house so I am not tempted to snack during the day. Frustrating at times but in the long run, it's what's best.
We have both been good with workouts and are finding it easier every day to get up when it is still dark and run. I have to admit that I had hoped my speed would come back a bit more by now, and that was actually the theme of the self-pity blog I started. But, I am running. We have found the pool again, but need to make that more of a priority. Same with the bike.
Still, I feel we are both moving in the right direction, and that is a good thing.
What about my fellow idiots...time for an update!
