School has started weigh-in: time to refocus?
Fall can be a time to refocus on ourselves and our goals. For many of us, it feels like a time of new beginnings: new school year, new shoes, new goals. 
Does anybody else feel that way?
I mentioned last week that I am starting a new 20 week training program to get ready for my next half-marathon (which is really only 10 weeks away, but it fits into the program perfectly.) Sadly, I am a bit off track already, because I am moving this-coming weekend, and it has thrown my schedule all off-track. I ran 16.5 miles last week, when I should have been over 25, but I'll just keep running. Weight is staying steady at least.
Starting weight: 298.4
Last week: 139.4
This week: 137.5
Loss of 2.1 lbs this week
Once I'm past this move, I will gear up and get running again! I'm counting on the Sat coffee group peeps to plant their feet firmly on my butt to keep me going, LOL. Have a great week!

Hi Renee,
I put back on the weight I lost oat my daughters due to lower activity on the freinds move back from Virginia, but I hit the weekend with a vengence doing 45 miles on the bike. There weight regain, take that!
So I am still in my re-gain range of "256-260," however at the high end. Today I am getting rid of clutter. I always feel better afterwords. I think clutter becomes a weight issue, and this is a step in the right direction.
Are you moving more out more in the country?

Hey Paul:
Your bike riding should really help! 45 miles is awesome!!
I agree about the clutter--it really weighs you down, doesn't it? That's one good thing about moving, getting rid of clutter.
Unfortunately, not moving further out into the country. Wish I was. I am moving just across the street, basically, but to a smaller (and cheaper!) place. I am looking forward to not being "housing poor" and having a little more spare change, but I am sacrificing with space--the kitchen in particular will be smaller, but I'll live with it. Shouldn't be cooking a lot anyway, right?
I'll be closer to the Eagan Caribou for coffee, so I still plan to run there and back on Eagan weeks. Can't do it this weekend, but end of the month. Who will join me?
