Friday:

I did it! I did the 7-mile hike through Sable Point Wildlife Sanctuary! I wrote more about it in my journal but suffice to say that I am very happy with how much my physical endurance has improved thanks to low-carbing and exercise. Just six months ago, I could never have made this hike especially in the heat and humidity. It was fairly easy for me to do so I will be gradually adding longer hikes during this next year! It was wonderful and made all that treadmilling and weights SO worth the effort. As the weather cools, I will be doing more outside activities and fewer gym activities. But nothing beats work in the gym in the Florida heat. Thanks for all your support and encouragement!
