288 Looking foolish

185 this morning.  Phew! That's very encouraging.  The other thing I like about counting calories is that I feel as though I have one more healthy plan--I can count calories, count points or do the simply filling plan. All are annoying of course, but since they're annoying in different ways it helps me not blow out completely.  Yesterday was funny--I have my marathon book and I'm determined to get back up to jogging for 45 minutes or so and when I can do a reasonable 5K then I'll decide if I want to press on or just maintain that level of fitness.  Yesterday I was embarrasingly stiff and sore, but I was determined to go to the gym after work and "run" the 8 minutes and then walk home.  I started off for the gym when it dawned on me that the sidewalks were no longer slippery. Hey!  I turned around and headed for home. Once I crossed the really busy street I started jogging, nice coat, big bag, umbrella and all. I'm sure I looked like an idiot but I got those 8 minutes in. Today I have my wellness time--so the plan is strength training, a 5 minute run and I walked to and from work.  Hopefully all that will help with the pizza I plan to eat tonight. :)
