Labs in the morning!

Please pray that my morning labs tomorrow are much improved over my last ones! As many of you know, I have been really working hard to get my numbers better and to lose weight as well.

Today I got a 2.5 mile walk in again! YAY me! I won't get my results until my appt. next week but please "pray my numbers down" tonight!

YEAH!!!! You are doing great!! I need to go drive my walking route to see approx. how far Beau and I usually walk! He gets better all the time. Are you being pulled around a lot still? I bet some of your walking is without your dog! Today it was windy enough that our walk included some resistance training.

Thank you, Dave!

Jan, when I take Bear for a walk he still pulls (the Husky in him) ... not as bad as before but he is definitely what threw my back out for a while there. My collie (Lily) is much better except that she walks like a drunk ... weaves from side to side! LOL! Bear and Lily go on separate walks around my block then I take my 2 mile trek alone on our Greenway. Today was very windy here too .... so only Bear got his walk. I'll make it up to Lily soon!

Sending positive wishes up there to you Kim.

You have worked really hard so I hope the results are a suitable reward.
