fajrdrakoI've lost twenty pounds!
I had promised myself that when I lost twenty pounds, I could get a massage. Now I can schedule it.
Oh happy day.
My stated goal back in March was to lose 30 pounds. I'm 2/3 of the way there.
I'm just... tickled. I did it! I'm doing it!
Now for my morning walk towards Rivendell. Elrond's house is almost in sight: I've walked 413 miles, which leaves 26 miles to go.
It looks like a lovely morning, too - cool and sunny, after days of steady rain.

You earn a shieldmaiden's shield for every 25 miles walked (or cycled). Virtual incentive. I got really into it - that was the first step of my current escalating fitness initiative. I loved the idea - still do. Shieldmaiden of Gondor, that's me.
