A Marathon Goal - not just a weight goal...
Some years ago, I woke up one morning and decided that in order to help with my consistency with my weight and fitness goal, I'd set a goal to run a marathon.

I am having flash backs of when my husband was doing bodybuilding. I just saw your pictures. That is hard work and dedication. Cheers to you.

Crazy scales!
So, a few years ago I bought a digital scale - one of the WeightWatchers ones with the body fat calculator. I figured WW is such a big brand that it ought to be reasonably accurate.

Okay so this week my girly is here. Well, for the first time EVER I can look in the mirror and not say, "I'm so fat!" Every month I would get bloated and feel SO big. I guess I've lost enough weight that my "skinny" jeans still fit and I just don't feel like I look fat! It's awesome! It gives me motivation to keep…
