    I've read a lot of great success stories in my years on MFP, and yours is one of the best. I hope that beginners will really take to heart what you said. Start with small changes. Set achievable goals. You've done a fantastic job. Congratulations!

    Congratulations!

    I agree with all the advice you've given as well; Set small goals, and always work towards them.

    And I love that the fitness goals are just as important as the scale goals, I'm also at the point where that matters just as much as the scale does.

    Thanks y'all. Slight change in plans though. Because my trainer couldn't do the Couples Tri on July 13 and because I manged to jack up my knee skydiving*, which in turn threw off my training schedule, the next Tri will actually be a Duathlon instead. I'm going to forgo the run/walk portion of the tri and do an aquabike duathlon this weekend.


    *Heh. That's right, SKYDIVING. Since this post I've gone skydiving and ridden almost all of the rides at Six Flags....because I can now. :) The only ride I haven't been able to enjoy is the Iron Rattler, because the seating would require me to bend my leg at an angle that I just can't do. It's like a dream, being able to do all the things I couldn't do before!
