A quick summary of what I accomplished in January since coming back on the 5th:

- 9 pounds gone!

- 8 glasses of water or more each day = over 216 glasses!

- 6 blogs written

- walked the dog every day (except 2 when the weather kept us in)

- logged 865 exercise minutes - most of it walking

- ate over my calorie range for the day (1200 - 1500) only 2 times (usually because of my love of wine)

- only used my asthma puffers twice

- have agreed to do something that scares me - go to a muay thai kick boxing class with a friend who is thin and fit!

How do I feel? Pretty proud of myself! I have stopped jumping on the scale at every turn and I feel pretty much in control. I have made mistakes, but I have picked myself up and have kept going. Let's see if I can keep up those fast break goals through-out February - they have been really good for me.
