This week the scale has tipped just below 145. It doesn't seem to really want to move below 145 and is fighting to hold its position. I have gotten several comments from people recently about having lost weight. I have finally lost enough that people can see it in my face. I am having difficulty with my clothes because I don't have enough money to buy a whole bunch of pants that fit now, when I plan to lose 5 to 10 more pounds. So do I wait? I was running last night and my underwear were falling down. I seem to have lost a lot of weight in my rear.I guess I could buy some clothes that I can still wear later. Maybe some skirts or shorts. Luckily my partner at work has some clothes that she doesn't wear anymore (she's lost some weight as well) so she gave them to me. I'm wearing a pair right now!
So paddling has been going pretty well, we did this thing called a "Tractor Pull" on Saturday morning at 6:00am. You sit in the first seat of the canoe and the coach sat in the last seat to steer and you pull the canoe for a quarter mile all by yourself. And he times you. I did pretty good, I did a quarter mile in 3 minutes 40 seconds. The time to beat was 3 minutes 23 seconds. This is one of the techniques the coach uses to pick who goes in the races. There is a race on Saturday, it's a few miles long- I'm actually hoping that I don't get picked. I don't want to paddle for two hours. The last race was about an hour and a half and it was really hard.
Goal for this week: get the scale to stick at 144 for REAL YO!
