Slow is the New Fast
Did you know?
Slow is the "new" fast!
I'm totally in love with ths saying. It means to me more than just the pace that I run. LOL.
Weight loss is also a slow process. You have to be patient, consistent, and work your butt off!
I weighed myself on Saturday, and I lost 1.5 pounds!
Not bad for not being able to do any cardio- especially running!
I'm very happy about this loss.
I'm 11.5 pounds away from my weight goal!
Today I am thankful for the "will" that I've been blessed with during this journey.
It's so easy to wake up at 6 a.m. and "give in" to the feeling of "I'm too tired to run and/or work out today.
I'm so thankful that I have the support from my family, friends, and blog readers that keep me pushing on.
Thank you!

Good job on the loss. I really like that saying also. It can pertain to so many thins in life.
Have a great week!
Congrats on the weight loss. I also love that saying and it is on my head band that I wear at every walk I do... You are getting close to your goal.. :)
Oh my gosh! I'm so happy to have stubbled upon your blog!!
After months of agonizing I've decided that I'm going to lose weight. (Several humilating experiences prompted my decision.) I just weighed myself and *gulp* I have gained over 100 lbs!!! Yikes!
Feeling overwhelmed, scared, and utterly freaked out I decided to search out weight loss stories. Ya know, just to prove to myself that people can do this and low & behold I come across your blog.
It seems that everyone in the weightloss industry has a book to sell but in the blogging world it seems that real people are losing weight and I want to see what's working for them.
I can't believe I started a blog but now I feel like it was the right choice for my 1st Step on the journey.
Thanks for putting yourself out there!!! I appreciate it!
Great job on the loss! Your slow is a lot faster than mine! :)
I, too am thankful for "will" and good friends who support me.
You know M, I'm loving the saying "Slow is the new fast" As you already know I haven't been losing weight lately and in the past this is where I would normally have given up! But this time is different, I'm going to keep on pushing & even though I haven't lost weight the entire month of April, I am starting to lose it again in May!!! So, patience is a virtue! Thank you for this post and I hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day!!!
I'm new to your blog and just wanted to say hi and congrats! You're doing great! I just started running yesterday and it's terrifying and empowering all at the same time. Stop by the blog for a cup o tea sometime. Thanks for the smiles! :) - Kirsten
