    As always you're an inspiration! I'm waiting until I get down below 220 to take up running but, the day I know that scale has moved below that point, I'm going to start C25K. I'm afraid I'll destroy my knee joints if I start now...lol. It shouldn't be too long though. Keep up the great work girl!!!

    Great post and thanks for the inspiration! I'm also curious what type of scan that is and what type of provider you had the scan and your various body fat and VO2 assessments done?

    You are inspiring! Thank you for "being an open book" it helps to hear these things. Your hard work is great to see. I have been wanting to kayak, it's one of my goals. Cannot wait till I am small enough to fit in one. Great job, lady!! :)

    It was through local university here. They have a weight management clinic that does research studies on weight loss. The study that I am doing does body scans and vo2 tests and alot of other things. Its been amazing. And they pay me to see how diet and exercise impact my weightloss.
