85! Alright, there’s just 5 days left until I reach the end of the 90 day goal! For the most part, it’s not been as bad as I thought it would be, though obviously I had a few challenging days here and there. But I only really felt like quitting once, and that was only for one day.

Both yesterday and today my weigh-ins were in the high 170’s (179 point something both days) – and so that also has me feeling pretty good. You don’t get to see the first number change too often (for me only once), so seeing the 2nd number change always feels like a big accomplishment.

At this point, I’ve not been wearing any of my XL clothes anymore at all… or the bigger L ones. I still have a few M’s that don’t fit just yet, but are getting close… But being able to wear these clothes feels good. So I’ve pretty much shifted my entire wardrobe now.

I was able to locate the time for yesterday’s 5K. It’s not an amazing time, but surprisingly it’s on par with some of my better recent solo 5k runs that I was doing in preparation, despite the fact that this run was most definitely harder – I mean, I didn’t have obstacles and such on any of my solo stuff, and even just the course itself was way hillier.

Time was: 31:52, a pace of 10:16/mile

Ok, so… 85. There are 85 Federalist Papers, the last of which, “Concluding Remarks”, was written by Alexander Hamilton.
