Today was last weigh-in before the polls close on my big campaign. Next week I'll know for sure if 2010 was my last year of obesity or if Opal & friends will be singing "Auld Lang Syne" with me.
Last week I had 5.4 pounds to go. I was a little frightened & overwhelmed. I knew that it was possible, but the weight of my public commitment & my sincere desire was crushing. After WW on Saturday, I decided that I couldn't regret the outcome if I tried my hardest. Over this last week, I laced up & went to work-out four times. I did two Zumba classes. I went to the mall & walked when I didn't have any shopping to do (which is odd because I still seemed to come home with bags). I was careful about every spoonful, finger-lick & sip that went into my mouth. I worked hard to make every rep, step & bite work hard for me.

The result of all of that last minute campaigning? I'm only 2.2 pounds away. Still a big task, but not insurmountable. Stay posted. Exit polls will be available next Friday. If I'm to win, I have some more stumping (& running & lifting & zumba-ing) to do, so I better hit the trail.
Here's to "Overweight in '08!"...you stay classy, San Diego!
