90 days of no Soda or Sweet Tea
Well, it's been 90 days since I kicked off my own personal Get Fit campaign by quitting Soda and Sweet Tea. Still on track, not a single soda or sweet tea the entire time. At the same time I started using Wii Fit Plus to exercise and try to get more fit. Did that for about a month and then moved on to Wii Gold's Gym…

I am a runner again!
Well, I decided to share my progress today because I finally hit the 30 pounds lost as of this morning. When I started towards the middle of August, I was at 198. Today, I weighed in at 168, and I have dropped several sizes in clothing too. You know it's great progress when we have a cold spell in Florida and I have to…

Little Black Dress...
So, back in 2008 I was to be married to a biker and we decided our colors were going to be black, pink and white. My dress was, of course, black and super flattering. But, when I had it on...it wasn't so flattering lol. Since then, we have broken up, I've moved on and I've lost around 27lbs. I decided to try on the dress…

Wearing my size 4 jeans today!!!
As reported earlier this week, I now fit into my size 4 jeans. I seriously never thought I'd ever get into them again. This is huge for me.

Over 40 lbs lost PROGRESS PIX! :n)
Okay, I've worked really hard to get to this point. I'm still obviously not done yet, but I do take pictures with every 10 (or so) lbs that I lose.

Very proud of myself
I haven't posted in ages but I feel so good about myself I wanted to share. I just completed my 5th week in a row of going to the gym! I usually go 3-4 times a week, and in the past I was so lazy about going that I would never really commit myself to making it a habit. Now it is, and I've made it part of my daily schedule!…

Minor success
This was pretty cool. The last time I ran outdoors was maybe two months ago, and I struggled to make 1 lap. I almost did two laps today which is almost a mile. I walked a bit, ran some more, walked a bit, then really pushed myself to run the last 1/2 lap. The only thing that sucks is I was expecting more since I can…

No longer afraid of flying
I travel (on a plane) for my job. It is not my favorite thing in the world, but mainly because of my size. I always had a fear that I wouldn't fit in my seat or I would "spill" over into the person next to me's seat. I also had to ask for seat belt extenders as well - which was no fun and was very embarrasing to me. So I…

Progress pic update
I took a pics in my bathroom mirror after 15 lbs and was really encouraged by the progress so now that I've made it 30 lbs I took some more but sadly these aren't quite as encouraging. I can definitely see a difference, I guess I was just hoping for a more dramatic improvement after 30 lbs... this has definitely awakened…
