Summer of Me Week 2

I lost 3.5 lbs this week. Yeehaw! I've been watching the soda intake, and eating habits. The other night I ran/walked a mile in under 18 minutes, which for me is a pretty cool thing. I ran over half that mile too! Huge accomplishment for me.

Next week, I'm hoping to keep off the soda train, up the water intake and keep up with the run/walk program. My SIL's wedding reception is tomorrow, so I will be having a few drinks and eats for that. I will try to behave myself.

Christie asked us what our most embarrassing exercise moments were, and to be honest I don't think I have anything that was "out loud" embarrassing, but I have had moments in my bellydance class when I feel the need to toot. And of course we are settling in to do lotus or some other moment that seems to work against my sphincter staying closed. Thankfully I've had silents and not blastem's during those times. Not all that embarrassing since I didn't blow my cohorts over with a blast, but it was mortifying to be afraid I was going to fire a biggie in front of everyone.

That is funny! I'm always afraid of tooting at the gym, lol.

Way to go on that loss! Keep it up!

Congratulations on the weight loss! Keep up the great work!
Thanks for stopping my blog. I'm also a preeclampsia survivor - I'm looking forward to reading more on your blog.

Oh, and when I have to toot in public, I make sure my toddler is nearby so I can blame it on him. Haha!

awesome weight loss this week!!! snaps for you!!!

i once tooted on the treadmill. i was wearing headphones with the music all the way up and i have no idea if it was loud or not. but the lady next to me didn't have headphones on (unfortunately) and about a minute later she powered down and left. so i guess that was my answer. whoopsy!
