Alissa Lost 20 Pounds

I'm on a weight mission. I've done pretty good walking with ankle weights and hand weights during lunch at work. Many days I try and walk one more lap then my body wants too. Then I've been trying to go somewhere during the weekend that requires walking. It can be hard with naps in the mix. I have two little ones.

This sounds odd, but seeing the smokers outside in the same spot day after day outside of work motivates me. I think in my mind, "I don't want to be like them." No offense to anyone that smokes. I just don't want to be unhealthy. Most people that I know that smokes wants to quit. They know the habit is bad. I want the same with eating. I don't want to quit eating; just want to eat right.

Then there is a gym on the other side of the building I walk around. I can usually hear someone in there cheering everyone on for some aerobic class, which pushes me to walk faster.

I've been eating healthier too.

I stepped on the scale yesterday, and I've lost 20 pounds since the tail end of the summer. It's hard for me to tell. I feel just the same. In fact I've felt kind of blah since allergy season started. I think I've just been losing it all over, and not just in one spot.
