So I had a friend who joined in with me on the challenge and is attempting to catch up with me. A few, actually, but this one had put it off, and needed to catch up from days 9 and up. While I was feeling proud of myself for finally completing my first set of 10 consecutive, this fit bastard knocks out 20 at once.
I did another set of seven, three over the day's goal! He did two sets of fifteen. Burpee jealousy is very real, and it is tearing at my soul. Oh well. He has to do 34 tomorrow to get caught up. I just have 15. It does make me look forward toward day 30... 50... 78... on and on and up and up. It seems never ending. A co-worker (the same one that pointed me to the Lose It! app in the first place) asked me if I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I said absolutely not.
On the plus side, I have heard from at least person that I've inspired them to start making some healthy changes too. It's also nice when other people in my department ask me, "what is this burpee thing?," to which I have to show them in response, so there's one for the day (lately, I'll work two in there - gotta make sure they understand).
Weigh in and measure on Monday, as always. I'm going to try and not weight myself every single day like I usually do until then. Two milestones I'm looking forward to: 20 lbs lost; 26 lbs lost (10% of my starting weight!).
Hope you have a happy Day 15!
