Zepbound / Mounjaro Life S74 1yr+167d

 


So I got my July 5K done this morning … a hilly trail run on a very HOT day … my time was almost 5 min slower than my last 5K but I was completely drenched in sweat on this one!  In the photo above that is the same shirt in both photos … I am down to two more 5Ks ((August & September) before my 10K in October.  I am heading to Cary NC for the 10K.

I start my 10k prep this week with the Jeff Galloway Run-Walk program … we will see how that goes!!

  So … on impulse I signed up and did a 5K run.   I had not fully trained up for it but I wanted to see where I was at … in all honesty I was worried that I might not finish it so I picked one an hour away where I would not know anyone! I am very slow at 49:21:59 but all in all I was happy with my performance.   I could not have done it any faster at this point.   But given how I never thought I would ever be able to do a 5K again before the tirzepatide  … it was actually wonderful! I am still looking to do a 5K for my birthday but hopefully I can train up to it being a little better time … I should have some PRs in my future regardless of how slow I am … lol! The tirzepatide cold feeling was real … it was 54 degrees with 10 mph wind gusts and I was wearing a t shirt, a fleece pullover, and a second t shirt and thank God I warmed up once we started …  I never experienced feeling cold like that before the weight loss! And I did hit the gym on the way home so...

  Wow!  My 80th shot this morning!    Holding steady at 230 pounds , but I feel good.    I finished  my 75th gym work out of 2024 and I am committed to keep that going.  My 10K training is off a bit given all the company I have had but I should be able to get back on track now prior to my October 10k.   Next up …    1) Write the great american novel 2) Find the love of my life  3) Live happily ever after  lol … Not doing too bad then! The photos were on two consecutive days .. the water tower shots were done by maneuvering on a boat to get the right angles … the sunrise with the reflection on the hood of the car was a random pullover on the way to work.   I love the shots!

  This is an AI rendition of what I would look like as a hippie … it made me think of the all the possibilities of what could be or what could have been … I am at a protracted plateau now fluctuating between 237-243 for the past couple of months.   The only thing I am doing different is that I am working out 2-3x per week in the gym trying to regain some of the muscle and strength I lost this past year.   It seems counterintuitive to me that working out would slow my weight loss down like this but maybe it does … for me! I have been amazied hy how many people have started their own weight loss journey.   Like me early on they want to keep it to themselves until other people notice a difference.   Human nature to be self conscious and afraid that what has worked for so many people won’t work for them.  I am going to stay the status quo for now and see if the weight loss starts again … but I will continue working out.  I am doing my shots every 7 days si...
