Today was a good day. I was afraid to get on the scale with the past weeks I have had, but I got on and was happy with the results. I am officially half way to my weight loss goal, that arbitrary number I picked to lose, (not a final weight) I set back in August. Down 75 pounds and thrilled. I am 88 days into my 140 day mini goal I set back in February. The ONEderland goal. I was beginning to feel defeated. I was on a plateau and then had a minor injury and was sure I set my goal to high. Well I have 52 days left (7weeks) 12.3 pounds to go!!!!!

| Down 75 pounds |
I completed week 8 day 3 and then minor knee injury. I can get back to running in a few days. Not sure what happened I ran 3 miles and later walked 3. This is somewhat normal for me now. Then my right knee stiffened up and it hurt. Hurt enough for me to make an appointment to see a doctor.
I am feeling better. I went back to swimming because the Doc said no running for 7-10 days. The pool has been great. At the same time I am anxious to get back out to run. I never imagined saying that.
I am feeling like I can make ONEderland in the time I have set. 7 weeks about 2 pounds a week I will get there. My next mini goal is August 2 to be down 100 pounds. 100 pounds in 1 year not impossible.
John and I have lost 120 pounds between us. We are a good looking couple.
