Today is the last day of my diet /  recovery.  I plan on running tomorrow for the first time in two weeks.  It has been hard not running, but I know I feel a lot better for taking some time off.  Also, I am down to 179 for the first time since I can ever remember.  For those who don’t know, at the height of my weight gain, I was 278 in July 2011, so I have lost 99 lbs so far.  Wow, a year and a half ago I would never have thought I’d loose so much and have run a half marathon!

I am a bit hesitant about running again since I have had almost no carbs of fat in 14 days.  I’ll take it slow to begin with and see how I feel.  I hope that loosing so much weight will make a big difference, especially in my aches and pains.

I can’t wait to love running again.
