    Congrats! Glad you were able to make the changes you needed! Consistency is key, Willpower is required, but a good goal or reason makes it that much easier :)

    Before, this was 270-something lbs. The second shot is from today at the gym. 174.8!!

    I'm 5'8". I'm 31 years old and Mom of three kids, ages 6, 3, and 1.

    Current routine: I run 6-7 days/week, and lift weights 2-3x/week. Eat less crap, drink more water.

    Current goal: 145-160lbs, resting at whichever number I feel strong, faster, and healthy. To be determined when I get there. :-)

    EDITED:
    I've gotten like 10 messages asking how I did it or how I got started. Here you go...

    Let's see. A year ago this week I had a debilitating spinal cord injury due to a herniated disc. I had emergency surgery and was in a rehab hospital for almost a month because I was paralyzed from the waist down. It's a miracle I regained sensation as much as I have. The neurosurgeon said the best way to prevent this from happening again is to lose weight and strengthen my core. So I took him VERY seriously.

    The first day I walked a quarter mile around my neighborhood, with a CANE! I just kept at it, every single day. Walking longer, farther, faster, adding in jogging after a few months, then walking with running, and now full on running.

    The key for me has been consistency.

    Awesome to hear! I'm glad you came back swinging ;)
