What's your: "I NEVER thought I would, but NOW..."

bangersnmash90

I NEVER thought I would like sweating and actually be annoyed when I didn't feel I worked as hard as I could!

PlunderBunneh

I NEVER thought I would weigh less than my husband.
I NEVER thought I would sacrifice my sleep-in morning to wake up at 5:30 for a sunrise run.
I NEVER thought I would be a runner. I couldn't even run more than 30 seconds in grade school.

I never thought that I'd actually ENJOY working out and be upset when I realize that I can't fit it into my schedule some days.
I never thought that I'd crave drinking water over anything else... even at restaurants when a margarita is on the menu :drinker:
I never thought that I'd drink black coffee... or coffee in general, to be honest.
I never thought that I'd love looking at myself in the mirror naked (maybe TMI, but still lol)
I never thought I'd have people asking me for healthy lifestyle advice.

And most of all, I never thought that I'd be this dedicated to change my life for the better despite all of the odds, trials, tribulations and obstacles along the way.

Great job to everyone! :flowerforyou:

Never thought I'd ever be able to say "I've lost 112lbs" Or that I could ever put both legs in 1 of my pant legs. Never ever thought I'd ever say after having kids "I am smaller then I was in high school."

I love, love, love this thread =D

I never thought I'd fall in love with weightlifting, but I definitely did.
I never thought I'd wear spandex pants to the gym and feel comfortable, but I do.

I never thought I could squat over my body weight, or do push ups off my knees. I do both now.
I also never thought I'd set my next goal at doing a pull up. It's a work in progress.

I actually never thought I could lose it in the first place, much less maintain that loss. (Been on maintenance 6 mths this month)
I definitely never thought I'd eat over 2000 calories a day regularly, without gaining... but thank goodness I can, cause I love food.

And I never, never thought I'd willing sign up to run a 5k. I still hate running, but I like to push myself- so my first one is in August.
