- I love the site Dailymile. First off I've met some cool local people already. 2nd I get lots of inspriation, which you can never have too much of. 3rd I love to see how much I've done and it encourages me to do more.
- I have noticed that quickly I'm getting back into my stride. The last few times I exercised I didn't need my inhaler at all. We rode our bikes last night and I made it over every single hill without having to walk any. That was one of my goals!
- I'm sad that there won't be enough light to ride much longer and pretty soon it will be bitter cold. Damn winter, damn you.
- My appetite has lessened a lot, I'm so thankful for this. For so long I was just eating so much or just too much. I made a plate of chicken parm last night and couldn't finish it, so my husband ate the rest of mine. Normally I am the one who finishes his plate.
- When did I suddenly become the healthy one in the relationship? I like it.
- My biggest goal for the winter is just to make it through the winter without going into hibernation like I usually do. I want to keep going to the gym and continue to focus on what makes me feel good.
- I finally got sleep again, a fully night's sleep. I'm convinced it's the change in weather and sunlight that is screwing up everyone's sleep patterns.
- This weekend I think we'll go see Paranormal, because I like to be scared. This can be another thing to figure out in therapy =)

Wooo! You go girl! You’re kicking ass and taking names!

How great to hear these things! Getting up the hills without walking…not being able to eat your whole plate…getting enough sleep…lots of victories there!
I love Dailymile too – it actually motivates me to get more miles in. I’d love to meet some local people through there.

@Josie, I’m totally motivated today to push myself a little bit harder.

Great job! My husband has asthma and needs his inhaler less and less now as he has gotten in better shape.
Congrats on the full night’s sleep, too!

@Lori (Finding Radiance), it’s helpful to know that as i get healthier the asthma could get less and less.

Congratulations on conquering the hill — and without your inhaler, no less!
