The pounds go marching 2 by 2, hurrah, hurrah!

Down 2 pounds again this week. It feels great to be on a downward track again. I have significantly increased the exercise this week. Back to walking the extra two stops in on Metro, doing the walk a mile at home, and walking the dog after the walk a mile. Randy and I are doing a pedometer challenge. Whoever has the most steps gets a 15 minute back rub. If both of us make it to 10,000 there is no winner (except both of us for getting to 10,000 steps). I got over 11,000 last night and Randy was at 9,400. He's doing great with the steps. I may increase my minimum to 12,500 since it's a little easier for me to get my steps in. That will really push me outside of my comfort zone.

The holidays are coming. If I can maintain, I will be extremely happy but losing pounds over Christmas is a feat worth awarding. If I continue to lose weight through the week including New Year's Day, I will get a pedicure for myself.
