This is the journey of two women (and one of their moms) on the way to losing a combined total of 300lbs. We will talk about the good, the bad, the fatty, and everything in between. Sometimes there will be some bitching, and sometimes there will be some gushy ridiculousness, but it's all in an effort to keep us on the right track to being healthier and more confident women.

Goals

I have a goal for April.  My daughter and I are going to participate in the Vampire 5K in Dallas.  It's run at night and there's fog and blood splatter areas and other mystery areas that are awesome.  There are two starting points.  One for the vampires and one for the citizens.  At one point, the two trails converge and if you're a vampire you have to try to convert the citizens by taking their flags, a la flag football.  It sounds like a whole bunch of fun and we'll get in a lot of good exercise in training for it.  Woot!

I was going to do the Big D Climb in January.  52 flights of stairs.  1040 steps.  But then, as I was walking up to a 3rd floor apartment to deliver a pizza last night, I realized I really fucking hate stairs.  They are the absolute bane of my existence.  So why in the world would I do 1040 of them VOLUNTARILY?  And, not only that, but PAY someone to do it!  So that suddenly became out of the question.

We were going to do the zombie 5K in Forney in March but it could conflict with a TKD tournament which would be bad and it was $82 per person to enter.  This one is right here in Dallas and after December 1st the entry fee goes up but is still only $50 per person.  MUCH more reasonable.

So that's my goal.  Come this April, I'm going to be a running vampire.  Woot!
