i dont remember what last weeks were but i feel better. i can tell in my face and in my shoulders that im getting smaller and that is HUGE for me. its hard because i have such a large midsection that you cant see the real difference, and while i dreaded measuring this term, i like it because i can see numbers change, even if my body looks the same. forward movement! im feeling great!

i dont know if i did the walkport thing well but heres what it says!
one mile walking 22minutes 24 seconds, i wasnt really sure how fast to walk so i did it at a leisurely pace. Score 21 Rating FAIR METs: 8.914080000000004 and VO2Max: 31.199280000000016. i dont know what those mean. i did see my suggested program and will likely follow it when i walk next week! i made myself a commitment to walking at least 25 minutes 5 days a week and have been able to keep that commitment, also adding in things like volleybal and swimming. i feel great!
