I started this journey in the end of January. I ate and logged my food making no real changes. Slowly I started entering exercise and testing out the "complete your day" feature to see how much difference it would make. For the first time in my life I began exercising. I am now ADDICTED! I do bootcamp 4 ish days a week. Sometimes more, sometimes less. I constantly confuse my body. Different reps, different times of day, different foods, different anything. Just mix it up and ENJOY life along the way!

In January I weighed *260* and wore a size 24 pants.

Today I hit my goal of 70 pounds lost and weighed in at the lowest number of *188.8* and fit into some 12 jeans.

I have not seen these numbers since High School (more than ten years now). I have NEVER been skinny, but I know now that I have the tools to once and for all get into my healthy range for my height (5'4").

Last night I ran my first mile nonstop since, well, maybe ever. I wasn't even willing to try this in High School. I feel STRONGER both physically and mentally. I know that I am capable of so much more than I had ever dreamed.

I hope I didn't leave anything out, but if so feel free to ask! Also, feel free to add me. This site has been such an amazing support.

    That is great! Keep up the good work. I am just getting back into exercising and eating healthy. I used to take a tough kickbox training class (with gloves, heavy bags) 3x a week several years ago. Can't wait until I am back to that kind of shape. I've just completed 30 Day Shred Level 1 Day 3 today, and have walked with some jogging for the past several days.

    We can do this! Best wishes to you.:smile:

    Found this in a previous post I read, haven't tried it yet, but it is worth a try.


    To post pictures that you find on Google Images right click on the image and click on to "Copy Image URL" and then post in the reply box like normal. Then in the beginning of the post WITHOUT ANY SPACES put and at the end put. For example: 

    www.funnypicturerighthere.com 

    And the picture will show up automatically when you hit reply. Now some links are too long and won't show up. It's a problem I've been running into. So as far as I can guess just pick a different picture and move on.
