Finally Reached 40 Pounds

It has seemed like it has taken forever to reach this point, especially with only losing 1 pound last week and only 1 so far this week.  My weight loss has seemed to slow down and I'm not sure why, but at least I'm still losing.  Justin and I finally got an exercise mat (haven't used it yet though), so we can do floor exercises at some point.  I did end up buying a heart rate monitor that didn't have the chest strap.  However, I returned it yesterday, when I took my Mom to her doctor's appointment.  I really don't know why I thought I would like it.  I HATE watches.  I think they are ugly and disgusting.  I have never liked them whatsoever.  I felt like a nerd when I wore it.  Yuck!

Tomorrow, (weather permitting) we are going to try to hike Owl's Head Mountain again.  My first attempt was not successful at all and wasn't even close.  This is about a 6 mile hike round trip.  The longest I have done so far is a 4 mile round trip.  I'm not sure if I'm ready yet to take on that hike.  I guess only time will tell with that. 

On this coming Tuesday, I have an interview for a Special Education Teacher position. Oh how I pray that I'm offered the position.  It's about an hour from where I live, but it's in the same town as where my Mom lives.  During the winter or days I just don't feel like going home, I can stay with my Mom.  Plus, it would be good for her because she will have company and she wouldn't be home by herself all the time like she is now.  I had an interview for a TA position at one of the schools that I sub at a lot this past Tuesday.  They told me that I should hear something back the day after the interview, which I haven't so I'm assuming I didn't get the position.  I pray for something good to happen soon!

40 pounds down, 120 more to go
