OK, i thought about this on the way home, how exactly to phrase it, and it sounded perfect, but now that i'm home and writing it, i don't know if it will sound as good :wink: any how, when i started this journey, i was about 185 lbs..the grocery store is about a mile away, and we would take the short cut, and it took me over an hour and a half to get there, just there, not counting the way back. fast forward to minus 15-ish pounds later, the same way, the short cut took me approximately 55 minutes to get there. fast forward another minus 20-ish pounds later, current weight of 142 or so, it took me 49 minutes to get there, walk around inside for 5 minutes, and get BACK home, all while carrrying a little less than 10 lbs of groceries, AND taking the long way home (about an extra 5 minutes ) :happy: i feel so charged up this morning after that walk, and seeing my time..oh, and all this while STILL being a smoker:smokin:

    Feeling stronger and being able to go further and faster is definitely a NSV (and not a mini one.:smile: ) Keep it up. (maybe you will be tempted to tackle the smoking habit too? :ohwell: )

    definitely, but not now..quitting smoking AND weight loss won't work for me..im hoping by the beginning of the year..thank you :flowerforyou:
