Total Distance
4.50

3 miles on treadmill. Mile 1 easy warm up 11:30, mile two still felt good at 10:50, then kept picking up the pace for the last mile. Time for number three was about 9:45.  

I did another 1.5 mile jogging behind kids to free lunch and back.  I have a new recipe I want to try today so will be heading out to the store soon.  

June/July have been hard weight months. Err, too much new food being offered to me all of the time. I need some consistency but any weight I gain comes off the next week of controlling my portions again.  All in all I am still down 48 lbs since november. I need to loose a total of 75 at least. 

Weight: 0.00
