I SWEAR I eat!!!
I have been working in the office lately. I am used to working at home but I enjoy being with my co-workers, always loved the comraderie. Whenever I walk into a room and someone is eating, they turn the to-go box away, or apologize for the food they are eating. I have never made a comment about food or diet to anyone who…

I think thanksgiving was the next day and that was the end of that:) I know that this is just the beginning and that this is the wall I have trying to break through for years. Ive reached 199 like 10 times over the years just to screw it up and jump back…

Did my FIRST 5K run!!!
So Sunday I competed in my first 5k run for charity. Really funny thing is, you had the option of a 3K walk,5K run or 10K run. So since it was a first, I opted for the 5K. We get there the day of to find out they didn't plan out a 5k route???? So they turned the "5k run" into the 3k run route times two...so..you guessed…

I survived 1 Hour on the Elliptical Trainer
Sorry this is long I get on the Elliptical Trainer and do my settings and turn on my MP3 player and I set the time for 1 hour. I spend the first 10 minutes trying to get my heart rate up to the cardio part, and once I do I start to zone in on what my body is telling me. At about 15 minutes I start to do a little routine. I…

One year down and a lifetime to go...

Overweight and ready to celebrate
Today I hit my first goal. Be OVERWEIGHT! Strange I know, but for the past 7 weeks thats what I've wanted most. My BMI today is 29.97 Overweight NOT OBESE! But I won't be celebrating to long, I'd rather be NORMAL! So after breakfast I will meet Jillian for some more shredding. I hope everyone has this feeling soon.

My wife and I signed up on MFP a little over a month ago(3/9), were trying to lose weight before this but MFP has made it MUCH easier.

Met My Final Goal
I have gone from 159lbs, to 140lbs, probably the slimmest I have been since before I had my children. The hardest thing for me has not been the food side of things, because I can be quite self disciplined when I set my mind to it and can cut out the junk. No, the hardest thing was getting off my backside and doing some…

So proud of myself
Today is my 30th birthday, so of course I ate a lot of junk between yesterday and today. But yesterday when I got up, I went out and did an 8 mile bike ride, and today I just got back from my first session of Couch to 5K. So now I had the best of both worlds, the fun of celebrating my birthday and eating what I wanted, and…
