so here we are a year later and what does the scale say? 178.8
well that was yesterday as i started typing. this morning 181.1. i had committed to my daughter that i would run/jog/walk the mile she is required to run for her cheer conditioning. we went out this morning. i loaded an app on my phone to track the distance and to share on my fb and twitter accounts. i was kind of excited that i was getting out of this complacency. ran/jogged the first lap. i felt pretty good. probably could have run a little longer but i met my goal so i walked the second lap and caught my breath. at the beginning of the third lap, the itching began. i have had this problem every time i try to jog or power walk outside. it is an unbearable itch, all up and down my legs. it takes over an hour for it to go away. needless to say, i couldn't continue.
i was disappointed that i could not do more, but excited because i had done .7 miles. i googled the itching and other people with this problem mentioned taking an antihistamine before going out. i will try this and see how it works for me.
