Today I went clothes shopping. My jeans have gone from 22s to 20s!34

I can "fold" in the middle. A lot less of the "pouch" that used to get in the way!20

I was thrilled to post here last week that I completed a 10 minute run when 5 weeks or so ago I couldn't run AT ALL (seriously w1d1 or C25K was BAD). Today I didnt' have time for C25K so I just jumped on the treadmill... 5 min walk warm up and stretching, then I was trying for another 10 minute run... 10 minutes hit and I decided to go for 12.. then 13... then 15... at 17 minutes I had to stop so i could cool down but it is great progress! I can't wait to hit 20 and then 30!26

I've been following the C25K program for the last couple of months now. As I've been going through the program I've been hesitant to increase the speed on the treadmill, thinking that if I increase the speed then I won't be able to make it through the increase in running time from day to day without having to take a break and walk. So I've stuck it out at 5 mph and wasn't too worried that if by the end of 8 weeks it takes me 36 minutes to run 5K instead of 30 minutes like the program plans for - either way its still much better than where I started out!!
Well last night I said what the hell and increased my speed from 5 mph up to 5.5 mph even with the extra 3 minutes of running scheduled for W8 D1 (28 mins up from 25 mins). And.... I made it through and I didn't die! In fact, I think I can go faster So here's to aiming for 30 minutes of running at 6 mph (a full 5K run) by the end of this week!!26 -

Nervous about this because I've never posted a full length photo anywhere online, but I'm doing it today because apparently I have legs now! I'm not sure where they came from, but I'm astonished that they don't look like tree trunks any more.
(Apologies for the poor quality of the photos. The tunic is one I bought for a "60s party" a couple of years ago (it's covered in peace symbols and general flower-power-type stuff), and it barely covered my butt. Now it's a mini dress and needs a belt because it's so baggy!)

Maybe more of a light bulb moment.... I've been feeling while on my daily walks that I should run ( In my teens - 20's I use to run all the time) I've tried a few times but didn't get very far, my issue is I'm 'top heavy'. This past summer I purchased a few new bra, took me a bit but the other day I clipped the straps together and they hold the bra together and the straps don't fall down. Well while on the treadmill I decided to run and I first ran a full minute with ease!! Ease!! I then ran again.... and again... It felt so rewarding and was so simple!! I can't wait to go outside today and do an actual run. I'll still have to go slow but sometimes slow and steady wins the race, right?
It's so small but feels like such a victory to me, My desire to run has been like a little voice saying 'you can do it' "Go Go Go!"

This one was huge for me. I had over 17,000 steps yesterday. I've NEVER had that many steps in a day!35

You look amazing and your legs are fab!5 -
Woke up late, couldn't find my other tennis shoe.
My sweetheart daughter trying to help grabs a pair of clogs I haven't been able to wear in YEARS.
"Oh no, I can't wear those my feet are too TOO fat."
"They look like they would fit.Try them."
"THEY FIT?!?"
Stunned frozen "They FIT!!!"
"Yeah, Mom."
Insert eye roll here.
As my daughter was getting out of the car she said
"Way to go on the shoes...bye Mom!" And flashes a big ol' thumbs up at me.
I found my tennis shoe in the book case's top shelf. My hubby had put it there last night.
Never been so thankful for my husband putting it there away from our teething puppy.30 -

Yay!! I don't think most people understand how limiting it can be to have large breasts. I regret all those years of inactivity and/or embarrassment, all because I didn't know there were sports bras out there that actually work!

There is a steep hill from the pasture gate to the porch, then a little incline to the garage. I may race the dog from the gate but usually stop at the porch. Today I ran all the way to the garage. Surprised the dog,25

My poor bicycle - I have worn the rear tyre out. I told my husband that I was going to buy a better wearing set of tyres. He looked at me incredulously, I'm like "What's the problem with that? I need tyres that are going to last a bit longer than five months". DH then says, "You do realise, don't you, that you've cycled over 2,500 miles since I fitted that tyre? Do you not think that is hard-wearing enough?"
He may have a point. I didn't even think about how many miles I've done. I just get on the bike and pedal.38 -
Yesturday when grocery shopping I walked past the entire chip aisle without putting any in my cart. (Yes i know chips are ok in moderation but calories dense and i know at tom i can and will eat entire bag if in house) instead i bough the kale salad bags.25

I didn't have gear to run in snow/ice today. Instead of using it as an excuse to skip that part of my workout I found a gym that offered a day pass.25

Having absolutely nothing in my closet that fits any more--except for a suit I bought more than 20 years ago.28
