Apart from my oops at the movies, I didn’t drink a drop of alcohol since 22-05-08. Just goes to show that I don’t really “need” it in my life. Nevertheless, once I am in Mexico I will be having mojitos and margaritas… So I’m kinda glad I finished this off. Yeah, me!
You have done this. In every way. I admire you for coming out on the other end, a happy and self assured Eve42. You know love is possible. Was it Shakespeare who wrote “It’s better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all”? You’ve had this experience and can tell us. I bet you wouldn’t give up knowing and loving Jay for not going through the pain of losing him.
You also gave me a bit of momentum to finally follow through with the ninja style remembrance ceremony I’ve been writing about weeks ago. Maybe in my 2nd holiday week, after Mexico?
...the web community SparkPeople.com. Without that website, I’d still be doing nada. It’s a bit time consuming, but in the end it pays off with tons of motivation (read my stuff here). Calypte, who educated me about the existance of the site, is my SparkBuddy, although I wonder if she already regrets agreeing to team up with me. My motivation resulted in virtually pushing her by posting comments.
Could be that the reason is that I’ve stopped doing this. Or taken a 3-month-break. The battery on the timer died, too, so even though I have been on a few walk-runs lately, I have no way to measure time run vs. time walked. Still I feel like posting here that yesterday, I have managed 3 fairly “long” runs (for my standard!), and I ran further than the day before that. I am incredibly slow and my steps are tiny, but still, progress is being made. I feel becoming fitter and losing weight is just one of the benefits.
