Short post tonight for I am exhausted, but in a good way! This whole running thing has really remotivated me to eat more on point and I feel very good about my food today.

Hubby is worried that I am still too heavy to run and will get hurt and that I'll end up back where I started. Well I have to first say that I don't want to get hurt either! I want to do it right (hence the starting slow, taking extra care to stretch, and sticking with strength training) so I can keep doing it. I also want to be good about my food so that I can lose weight and get even healthier and keep on running! Just to make sure that this is an ok thing for me to be doing I am going to ask Dr. Fuhrman his opinion (I really hope that he says that it is!).

I am going to keep close tabs on how my knees are doing, and if they do start to bother me I will back off; because while I don't want to wait until I've reached my weight loss goal to start living, I do want to be able to live when I reach it!
