Weekly Check In
Hey, all! I'd like to start checking in weekly check-ins because I now have a very good reason to shed some weight: I got engaged last night! (I asked him, he said yes, and was completely surprised. There was giggling, and it wasn't all mine.) Date is set for May 5 2012, weight goal is set for 155 (30 lbs). I've been working out three times a week at the gym, plus taking long walks with the dog 2-3 times a week. I've been doing portion control and smart snaking (popcorn instead of potato chips; it kills me).

So, this week I'm adding in swimming at the gym. My joints have been taking a beating with the increased exercise (I'm a klutz, and have several previously injured joints to show for it), so hopefully the water will help take some weight off of them.
