This helps me keep count of the laps I’ve run around the track. Our gym’s main fitness center, where the treadmills are, is closed for a week because of renovation. I can’t run outdoors because I need the gym’s babysitting center. So I just make do with the indoor tracks. This morning I ran 65 laps (5 miles). For every lap I move my son’s Spiderman ring to another finger. For every mile I change direction. I will be so glad to be back on the treadmills next week. I miss Oprah and the View on tv.

I haven’t posted a new entry in a while. Been busy with other stuff, but I have been good at keeping up with my running schedule. In fact too good. I did 12 miles today when it was supposed to be “only” 11. So I switched it in my chart. I am going to do the 11 miles next Saturday.

Last year I took their real age test at realage.com and I am supposedly 5 years younger than my birth age. I got this book at a thrift store and I keep this in the car as an emergency reading material just in case my son decides to nap in the car. It’s amazing how little things like flossing your teeth can slow down ageing. How much more when we exercise more and minimize eating crappy food?

So I lost the 2 pounds last week. Whew. I didn’t really do much but ate more fruits and salads instead of the crackers and goldfish I have been munching on lately. I made a point to make fruits highly visible especially in the kitchen area. 5 pounds sounds a lot better than 7, that’s for sure.

My friend Rhebs has accepted my challenge of running the 2010 Detroit Marathon with me. And she has even kept a fitness log. I’m so excited!

Seven pounds is the weight I need to lose. Seven pounds is the weight I gained in a year since I became a Weight Watchers lifetime member in July 2008. To some seven pounds might be nothing and not even worth sweating over. But last week I was working ( not seriously though) on losing five pounds. This week it has become seven pounds. If I’m not careful it will become 10 pounds. Then 20 pounds. Then I will be back where I started.
