2007 Milestones

I better get started on this. At the rate I procrastinate the year will be over before I know it...where did January go?

So, the idea is to keep a log of milestones, completed challenges, 'aha' moments, etc. In one place. I'm not one for spreading stuff out in random blog entries. I prefer to keep lists and try to get the 'big picture'.

JANUARY
whole month: noticeably lighter going up stairs, even after exercising
sometime in the first 2 weeks: 5% goal (274)...halfway to 3rd 10% goal!
last 2 wks: walking is getting to be fun again...more energy, easier, more fluid movement (still uneven gait, tho)
last 2 wks: I think I can feel my hip bones!
last week: Carp-e Diem Holiday 5% Goal (271) GOAL MET
1/31 January Exercise Minute Rewards: 3633 min GOAL MET
1/31 Mile Club--January 24.5 mi on treadmill (1/2 mile under goal)

walking outside is enjoyable and feet don't hurt afterwards
