Weigh-In Wednesday
Total Water=496 oz
Total Miles=8.625 miles
Change This Week: down 1.0
Total for Shrinkvivor Challenge: down 1.0
I leave for Chicago tomorrow to visit a friend for the weekend, so I’m sure that it will be filled with lots of edible temptations, but I am going to try my best not to splurge on something unless it is totally worth it. Kinda nervous about flying, haven’t been in a plane since 2003. Seriously, that’s forever ago. Add that to the nerves about leaving Emma at home with the new dog, and I think I may need to have a cocktail or seven in order to get on the plane.
*Update on Aunt Debbie. She went to Cleveland Clinic last week for her first Avastin treatment and she did great with it. She has been walking a little more the last week, so that is great news. She has her moments when she will slip away and pour water on the pillow and play in it like a child would do, but for the most part she is doing better then before the treatment. She goes back in another week for another treatment. Tomorrow night is our local Light the Night walk and my family will be pushing Debbie in a wheelchair. I am sad that I won't be there, but I will be in spirit. If anyone of you plan on walking or running tomorrow evening, can you do it in honor of Debbie or for someone you know who is fighting cancer? The support of friends and family is such an important part of this journey. Thank you.

You did great this week on the miles, water, loss, and logging! I'm so happy Ellie and Emma are having fun getting to know each other. I'm sure G will have everything under control.

You were a rock star this week. Have a great time in Chicago and wave as you fly over northwest Indiana. Treat yourself a little while you are there. You can make up for it Monday and Tuesday.
