[CyberTOPS] 2010 - my year to start again!!!

[Lori - cyberTOPS Owner]

Linda Lewis' chapter TX1432, Spring is using this as their theme for the 
year, and I have adopted it as mine too!!!

I am definitely back on track, feeling good.  My knee is doing well as 
long as I take arthrotec for the time being until the inflammation in my 
ligament (after-effect of the surgery) goes away.  Otherwise, all is 
healed well, just have to strengthen it.

On Saturday, I went on the treadmill for 30 mins at 3 mph, and had a 1% 
incline for part of that.  This was a considerable improvement from the 
last time I tried the treadmill a week earlier.  I then did weights and 
strengthening exercises for 20 minutes.  Today (Sun) I again did the 
treadmill for 30 mins at 3 mph, with a 2% incline for part of the time. 
No strength stuff today.  My butt is feeling it, along with my legs -- boy 
am I out of shape.

I am going on a trip to Vegas with hubby and friends in March, and would 
love to be 10 pound thinner by then if I can, but will take any amount 
thinner.  I definitely want to be 20 pounds thinner by my daughter's 
wedding in August, and that is do-able -- not even 3 pounds a month. 
(Listen to me -- "not even!" -- last year I couldn't even manage 1 pound a 
month! LOL)  But this year is MY YEAR to START AGAIN!  Whether I am at 
goal or not by my daughter's wedding, I am definitely going to be lots 
closer to it by then, and definitely lots closer by the end of the year. 
I am also going to be lots healthier by then too.

How about you??  Are you with me???
