Sunday Morning Weigh-In, Home Sweet Home Edition.
Just got back in town, went up on Sunday to The Cove (retreat center in Asheville, NC)
This was our 5th trip up there, beautiful place, huge mountain behind the lodge that I just ignored and the trails in the years past.
Last year when I attended, I was three or so weeks out from surgery and did good just to walk around the parking lot for my exercise. But I vowed that THIS year I would come back and do the hike!
3.5 miles up and then back (7 miles round trip) It was up hill most of the way to the overlook at 3885 feet. It took me 1.5 hours to ascend and then hung out waiting on the rest of the gang. (14 or so folks did the hike.) It was 60 minutes back down, jogging at times on the steepest sections!
I will post up a pic in my profile of me on the deck!!
Stats:
355 lbs when I started the program, 8/1/11
321 RNY 9/21/11
197.x last week
195.x this morning (a new low for me!!)
