still heading in the right direction

Well, today was another weigh in (223 as of today) and it looks like I may get down to ninety pounds lost be the end of May. Can you believe it? This journey has been long and hard. It is only going to continue that way as I try to lose another ninety pounds. I can't believe that so many months have past by already. There have been a lot of challenging days and I need to be driven to continue. The training is getting harder, but today was fun.

In our fitness class, we got to play kickball. Let's see, I think the last time I played was in fourth grade (yes, many moons ago). I had forgotten how to kick a ball properly because my toe is hurting. Anyway, it was hilarious trying to see me run and kick, much less trying to catch the ball. The other people did well and I am always impressed by the coordination these guys show. I think today was the first time I have played any kind of group sport in twenty years. In addition to forgetting how to play, I forgot how much fun you have as a group and how much your body works in what may seem like a simple game. You know, exercising can be fun, especially when you change it up. Next Monday and Wednesday will be tough workouts, but I can wait to see that "fun Friday" is next week.
