Gonna make you sweat.

First full run-through.

Last night, in rehearsal (where I spent a lot of time standing and in flat shoes) I thought I was feeling pain in my calf. I believe I should wear the bandage for more time.

Also, diet. Rehearsal keeps me from additional calories, like alcohol (drank last night, tho) and things Like popcorn, sweets, dinner.

Two months ago, I maxed out at 183 pounds. The fact that I lost that much weight in this short amount of time is a testament to how I gained the weight and what it consisted of -- shit in my system. Junk, trash, not food.

This time last year I weighed almost ten pounds less than I do today. And that is where I want to be. That part will be much, much harder.

The rewards, however, are evident. Less weary, less winded, and able to run further and feel better.

Less weight, more heat, faster run. Hate the cold now, it's so bad for my muscles. Now I am warm, more pores are open, and I am flying. Good news!
