Goal Weight: 195 lbs.
Today’s weight: 213 lbs.
I just have a moment — I’m in exile.
Exile — The state of being barred from one’s native country, typically for political or punitive reasons.
That’s me.
My sin? I didn’t lose any weight last weigh-in. So now I’m banished to the track for four days. Yup, I’m in the wilderness. It really seems like an appropriate thing to have happen at the beginning of Lent.
I admit — I did the crime, so I’ll do the time. It’s called personal responsibility. My task now is to make the most of it.
Today I ran just under four miles. I did 22o sprints on the track (and jogged the back 220) for 30 minutes. I simply ran the rest. Tonight I will do pushups and sit-ups to maintain that part of my fitness. My goal is not only come out lighter this week (I already am three pounds down from Friday) but to come out of it in better shape to get ready for next week.
So if you’ll excuse me, I need to get back to my exile. I have work to do.
