I met my first goal of 10 pounds lost and I finished my second week of the “Couch to 5K” program this week! (http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml). I lifted weights 2 times this week and hope to do better than that this week, but everything seems to be working well together. To lose weight over a holiday week is a great thing for me. I got some new running shoes to reward myself for finishing my first goal… the next reward will be a massage!

Is it Week 3 already?  I think I’ve lost count.  Anyway, I feel great, and had a fun Fourth of July Weekend.  I tried my hand at photographing fireworks, so if those turn out, I’ll be posting them on my photoblog soon. 

I still haven’t weighed myself, but just this morning the next notch up on my belt slid in quite naturally.  It’s where the previous notch felt before I started this up again, so I feel really good about that. 

Last week, I picked up a half case of Full Sail’s Session Lager, which I believe is one of the finest brews coming out of the Pacific Northwest right now.  Apparently, it won some international award in Europe a few years ago.  It has a very light, crisp taste, and goes with just about anything you can throw at it.  More importantly for us Fatbloggers, it comes in an 11-ounce bottle, not twelve, so you can dial back just a bit when you’re keeping track of calories.  If it’s at all available where you live, give it a try!
