in Introduce Yourself
So I'm not new... been on here for a few months. Today though I really had to just put something out there because I just want to shout!!! ;)

As of this weekend I have lost 30 pounds!!!!! My pants are toooo big, my undies are too big, my shirts... well being a large busted woman... those probably will never get much smaller but even those are feeling big. :)

I started this journey Dec 31st of 2010... back up and above where I was before. 251.4

I had lost 52 after I had my second child in 2006 and then hubby decided another one would be awesome.
After my 3rd child I had a hard time losing and going through rough times with said hubby didn't help the eating situation. (Emotional,bored eater) Then in Nov of 2009 he told me about a one night stand right after I had my 3rd that resulted in a child and that he was being served paternity papers. I spiraled down in spirits and life and up in pounds. 2010 was a very hard emotional year and after the initial shock and getting really mad.... I came to Dec and decided that 2011 was mine. I want this weight gone!!!! I have three kids 6 1/2, 4 1/2 & 2 1/2 and I need to keep up with them. And esp if he and I don't work out. (still in limbo but trying to work somethings out)

So I started and was not going down hardly at all, when I found this site. Then shortly after that a bunch of girls at work started a Biggest Loser contest. Needless to say I am now down 30 pounds and just started training to run a 1/2 marathon in the fall. (Oct)

Today I feel alive and fun. Getting skinny, making this about me for once instead of everyone else.... Learning to love myself again and knowing that no matter what happens with my marriage that I am a wonderful person with alot to give!

MAN I FEEL GOOD!!! 30 down and 71 more to go ;)
YIPPEEEEEE
