Day 250

Stats: Walked 1 hour, 5 minutes (3 miles)

Forcast was for rain. So, we hoped for the best. Woke to no rain. But, when we started walking this morning, we felt a little drizzle the first 2 laps. Thankfully, that was the only precipitation we experienced.

However, as I was driving home, it started raining. We had just enough time to get a decent walk in.

Plus, it wasn't quite as cold this morning. Ten degrees really makes a difference.

Day 248

Stats: Walked 1 hour, 24 minutes (4.25 miles)

I do beileive we've gone straight from summer to winter. It was under 30 degrees when Jay & I left for school this morning. Brr!

I dressed fairly warm--heavy Dri-fit shirt, Hoodie, windbreaker, gloves & my heavier walking pants--and I was still cold.

What can I say, we are die-hard. LOL!

In all actuallity, I think I'm going to freeze this winter. Just can not get warm!

Day 246

Stats: Walked 1 hour, 1 minute (3 miles)

Finally feeling much better. Not completely well, but it will do.

This morning was COLD! So cold that I had put the hood up on my hoodie. Something I never do. Unfortunately, I never thought of grabbing a pair of gloves on my way out the door. Gloves would have been wonderful. Instead, I had to stuff my hands in my pockets and hope for the best.

It was great to be out though.

Day 241 & 242

Wednesday's Stats: Walked 1 hour, 21 minutes (4.25 miles)

Did OK Wednesday.

Today (Thursday), I slept the morning away. Thought I was getting better, but took a turn for the worst. Pain is back in my sinuses & eyes. Feel horrible.

Still made it to the WW's meeting. Lost 1.4 pounds.

What's up with that .4 pounds anyway? The previous 2 weeks, I lost .4 pounds, each. This week, I lost 1.4 pounds. To make my 10% weight loss goal, I need to lose an additional 1.4 pounds. How crazy is that?

Total weight loss after 14 weeks...16.6 pounds.

I'm happy with it. Just wish I felt well enough to enjoy it.

Day 240

Stats: Walked 41 minutes (2 miles)

Still fighting the crud. But, today I have no headache & I can breathe. Woo Hoo!

Actually, we cut our walk short because it started raining. After finally being able to see light at the end of the tunnel, I was not taking any chances of a relapse.

Ended up feeling rather well. So, ran some errands. Planned dinner & picked up the necessary ingredients. Now that I need to start a couple of components of dinner, I'm ready for a nap. Crazy!

So Sick

Right now, I am on day eight of a headache.

I feel as if someone punched me in the nose, which leads me to believe my issue is sinus related. My jaw hurts. My ears ache. In fact, my entire body aches. My 6 pound dog jumped on me this evening & it hurt so bad due to all the aching. It hurts to brush my hair for pity's sake!

I'm coughing, sneezing and have a sore throat. I'm just plain miserable!
