Back on track, maybe

I haven't redone my measurements since September, but thanks to Wii Fit, I do at least know how much I weigh (we do not own a scale). I hover between 132 and 134, so I'm at least lower, but not quite where I want to be yet. I do know that as I get closer, I keep feeling tempted to move my goal. I'd really like to be 120, but I think 125 would be ok. It really depends on the muscles and how I look. I have these fantasies of what I'd love to look like, but I'm not really sure how realistic it is. Not because I can't lose weight, but because of my bone and muscle structure. I'm not one of those skinny girls who has really little bones and gets really tiny. Even when I was thin and in great shape when I was younger, I never looked like that. I've always had meat on my bones and I build muscle mass easily. I think I need to find some pictures of some more healthy women who are a little more built for me to set my sights on, rather than the annoying bombardment of models in all the cute clothes that look horrible on me.

At any rate, Andy and I are headed back to the gym tomorrow morning. It's been about two months since I last went, and when I did, it was the first time I'd run a continuous mile without walking or stopping since I was in high school. I'd like to keep that momentum going, and maybe down the road even participate in some kind of 5K run or half marathon and actually run it. I said maybe. Maybe I'm just still on the high from watching The Biggest Loser.

Anyway, that's where I'm at. I'm not going to go crazy, because when I do, I do worse than when I just take a more laid back approach. So, step one, go back to the gym. When weather gets warmer (ie, May), I plan on taking the two older kids jogging with me several times a week to build up their stamina for soccer next year. That's the plan, and I'd love to hear how others are doing!
