Battle of the Bulge – A Special Report
by Kym on August 28, 2007
I’ve nothing especially creative or original to say today. Not that I mean to imply I usually do. Because that would be arrogant. And we all know I’m humility incarnate.
I decided to strut my stuff and brag it up, because I’ve achieved a new weight loss low. Yep. I haven’t weighed this little since the summer of 2003.
Yesterday I climbed up the stairs. Two at a time. Back in the bygone days of yore, this used to be a standard for me. Run up the stairs two at a time. Jump down the last four or five. I haven’t done that in years for fear of the gravity induced repercussions.
It felt good. It felt really, really good.

I think I would fall down if I tried to take the stairs two at a time…I stay on the ground floor as much as possible. Maybe I need to run up and down the stairs a few times a day to get my blood going.

First of all, you ARE funny! It’s one of the reasons I keep coming back…
Second – WOHOO!! Fantastic job on the weightloss! We don’t have stairs in our house, but if we did, I’d jump the last 3-4 at the bottom just to celebrate with you ;)

Yay!!!! So all that feeling fat earlier this week was for nothing!
By the way, did my cunning plan work? ;)

Okay, first of all, YOU ROCK!! I have been trying to at least run (okay, jog pitifully) up the stairs to start with and when I get to the 2 at time stage I’ll let you know.
Secondly, the new template confused me for a minute this time :o)

I’m so happy for you! I need to get my butt in gear and shrinking too. Great work. You are awesome.

isn’t it funny that women celebrate their shrinkage and men fear it (especially in cold water)
seriously now, way to go on the stairs- I climb ours one at a time, while firmly gripping the hand rail and stopping to rest for a brief second every 6 steps or so, I don’t want to strain anything
am I pathetic?

Hurray for you! Nothing tastes better than thin feels.
At least that’s what they say at the weight loss center. Though that chocolate brownie I had last night puts that into question. :-)

Way to go! Even when I take the steps one at a time, I stumble. I hold on for dear life….there is tile at the bottom and it hurts!

Awesome! Good for you. You should feel proud. :)
(and you are totally funny!)

Hey!! Good job on the thinning thing. I need your karma with me on that… well, or to eat less crap and exercise more. Why can’t typing be exercise?
