Oh the shame. Putting this out on the world wide web for all to see.... Honestly, I'm not really bothered by it. I figure if you're following my blog the least I can be is honest with you. So here goes! My current weight is 151 lbs. Last year when I was training for my first 1/2 marathon I had lost 14 lbs. It's amazing how the weight likes to creep back up on you when you lay dormant for 4 months.
I try to not let the scale dictate my self worth and know that it is a fickle bathroom appliance. I also know that muscle is taking up a large percentage of my current weight. However, I keep all my earned weight/fat in my torso. I'm excited to see the inevitable changes that will be taking place as I move toward the finish line.
I've stopped trying to work towards an ideal weight goal. We all know where that gets us. Weeping on the bathroom floor next to a smashed up scale screaming, "WHY?!" Okay, too much?
I just want to look and feel strong and healthy. I also know the lighter I am the more efficient I'll be.
Would I be upset if I gained six pack abs in the process? Of course not, but I'm not looking to take on Tammy Lee Web anytime soon.
