So, I’m going to switch things up a little bit this week.  Instead of confessing things I’ve done bad, I’m going to confess things I’ve done good.

No bull [...]

This weekend, I went for my long run for Team in Training. 
Most runs, I let my mind go blank, forgetting about stresses and troubles and to-do lists at home.  I let my mind go free from all of it, letting my iPod pound out good music in my ears.
And this weekend’s run was the same.

This week’s Monday Project was to take a look at what things would be like if you postponed this little thing called a weightloss journey. If instead of being on it right now, what if you had waited? Stayed complacent? And instead, started in, say, two years from now, what would that be like for you? 
I [...]
