Two thirds down, one third to go...

Week 40! Two thirds done with this challenge. 20 weeks to go, and the pressure is on...

This week's weigh in: -0.2 lbs.
Total weight loss: -19.9 lbs.

I'll admit, the plateau is frustrating, but I have no other choice but to persevere.

I'm sitting here, watching The Biggest Loser finale (I stopped watching mid-season... didn't find the contestants personally compelling enough, but I always enjoy the season finale. It's always inspiring.

So, another update: Measurements. Bust and Waist down another inch each. Total weight loss down 15 inches in the Bust/Waist/Hips measurements. I'm relieved to keep making progress on that front. This week was a "pictures" week, too. I'm not posting them. I think they look good, but not too much change from week 30 in general. But, I *can see* that, beyond the basic measurements areas, I can see a slimming of my upper body, less extra flesh in places that it just isn't welcome. So, I've got that going for me, which is nice.

On another note, I did my Week 3, Day 2 of C25k, and as I expected, I definitely ran more slowly on the road, I can tell. But that's okay for the first run of the week. This weekend, I should transition to Week 4 at some point, and I'll do that on the road, too. Sloooowly, but I'll do it.

(I was going to say, "if it takes all day," but given that it's a timed workout, at least I know there's an end in sight. :-) )

I hope you all are enjoying the end of May... it quickly approaches!

Thanks for reading!
