OWiS #23 a few days early

I’m two days early. Putting OWiS up today so I can start this vacation with a kick ass number to remind me that I’m working towards a goal and to not lose sight when making choices this week / next week. So here we go…

OWiS #20… A Dear Tara Letter

Dear Tara,

First off, thanks for all the nice notes and mentions here on your blog. It feels really nice to know you are thinking of me everyday. I know I’ve always been around but this is the first time you’ve really made me a priority and I just can’t tell you how […]

OWiS #19….the streak is over.

I knew it when I wrote yesterday’s post that today would be the first time in this journey that I would have a gain. You try to not let it get to you but it’s hard. I try to say “it’s only 2.2 pounds” but with what’s been happening to me this week it […]

OWiS #18

WAY TO GO MEEGAN!!!

Okay, now down to business. A hard week of […]

Weigh in #14

I really want to run today (I did run after this post). This damn rain is upsetting me. I’m up early on my day off to get out there and move. Instead I’m having to wait for the gym to open up (one hour to go) so that I can at least get a good […]
