But, whatever.

I do not know the difference between hiking and just plain walking in nature.

When I was younger I thought that hiking meant walking up a mountain at a 90-degree angle with a backpack and a walking stick.

But then, when I was 16, my grandma visited us.

She made us go for a “hike”.

But our “hike” was just a walk through woods in the lower coastal flat plains of Southeast Georgia.

So, I’m still confused.

But, it’s too hot to jog outside.

The weather is 100% comparable to Southeast Georgia.

Humidity and all.

I went for a jog the other day and could only jog for about 7 minutes before I had to stop and walk.

It was miserable and embarrassing.

But apparently, I can stand to go for 50 minutes walks along the same trails.

Excuse me, a hike…

I try to make sure my pace is faster than a leisurely walk.

Yeah, I have no desire to go into any more detail about the jog.

But, whatever.

I’ve lost another 2 pounds.

17 pounds in total.

So, that’s exciting.

I am surprised, though, that I’m still a size 16.

I must’ve had more fat packed in my body than I originally thought.

When I was 200 pounds I thought for sure I’d look a lot different at 17 pounds lighter.

The most significant changes in my body are that I have rock hard calves and shins.

Which is weird, cuz the attached thighs are blobs of fat.

Haha.

But, whatever.

Immediate goal: lose 3 pounds by the time I move to Philly.

That’s five weeks.

And will be 20 pounds lost.

But, whatever.
