I can not believe this! I started running back in May of this year. I am now able to run a 5k race. I run fairly consistently four times a week. So far I have lost 21 lbs in five months! Count 'em.. 21 lbs! I seriously can not believe I have done this! I have never.. let me repeat never lost this much weight before and kept it off. I have always been overweight for my height and age. Some, if not most of you would say no that is not true .. but it is. When I started running (in May), I was 35 years old (still am) and weighted 202 lbs. Now - that is over weight. And yes.. most of you will say I've had 4 children basically right after the other.. but still that doesn't excuse my weight of 202 lbs - not acceptable!
But that's ok.. because I am taking charge and changing things in my life.. in many areas of my life. I've said this before.. and I will say it again.. I feel stronger today then I ever have!
This post is NOT meant to boost.. but to ENCOURAGE you all! If I can do it.. you can do it too!
31 lbs more to go!
