Today I did a pushup. A real one. Not even a girly one. I might have even done 2. I haven't been able to do a pushup... EVER. NEVER EVER EVER.

I also did 10 situps. I haven't been able to do a situp in probably 15 years. Not a single one.

Combine this with my 5 pound loss in 2 weeks, and I am feeling GOOD.

    I think you're fantastic! Great job........Pushups are really really hard!
    Make a challenge for yourself and add one more every day until you can do them well! That's what I did and I can do like 20---If I really really try!
    So happy for you!
