Drastic Measures

For the past two months I have been in a Biggest Losers challenge, for the first few weeks I was losing weight at a steady pace. Now I am completely stuck the scale will not budge so I took drastic measures this week. I got a job as a coupon runner. I get paid to deliver coupons door to door and they expect you to run about six miles a day. I thought it would be great motivation to exercise if I got paid. I have done it two times now and I am actually enjoying it. It takes me about two hours and it is a good break away from the kiddos. So if you see me out running say hello and bring me a Dr. Pepper.

That's great! I wish I was getting paid to run!

I wrote you an email on Boston but then realized I don't seem to have your email address. I'm not sure how that is! Will you send it to me? My email is just kristywalker at gmail.com.

Way to go Nik. That's a good idea, maybe I should do that too. Don't worry I haven't lost much weight either. I need to seriously work harder. Don't think that because you're running 2 hours a day you don't need to come to the church to work out with me :)

Yes, don't think you are getting out or our m,w,f workout! Neeley and Toola will miss Cade too much and Austin will miss Lilah! I am jealous of your job. I want two hours free from kids to exercise!

Well shoot. I wish that I was there to cheer you on if I saw you! Good for you! Winter is coming which means that I am indoors hibernating. I should be out there like you running! Hope all is well with your family!
