    THanks!! I should've not said the lbs lost, because to me I don't let the scale define me, yes it's nice to see a smaller # but I actually weigh more than I did in High School but in a smaller size! Lifting leans and tones you out!!

    So I have lost several inches and dress sizes!!

  • I really don't know where to start and still baffled when I hear, 'You are a success story!'

    I started my journey a year and half ago-January 2011. It wasn't until March of that same year that I found this neat app on my phone-MFP and thought that would be great to tell me how many carbs I was having, that is all I wanted to see at the time. I was trying to do those 'low-carb' diets I always here about. I then found the wonderful website and met some awesome pally's that kept me motivated and supported, when I felt like I had noone. (Just moved to a new state, living with in-laws and felt like my world had turned upside down) I weighed the most I had ever weighed....and it finally hit me that I was worth exercising and eating right.
    At first I started with tracking EVERYTHING that went into my mouth! and then added in wogging (walking/jogging) I could barely do 30mins at a time and that usually happened during my lunch break. I had tried to 'run' and workout before we moved, but was always tired and had the mind set I can eat whatever I want I worked out today.
    Me on the right

    I then signed up for my 2nd 5K and my first with the hubs! My first one was alot of walking and very very slow. but I had a great girlfriend that kept me going and encouraging!


    Well anyways, I learned alot about myself, my body, my mind and did alot of research last year! I wanted to Honor God with the body He gave me! This momma wanted to be active and not always laying around.

    I'm shorter than my husband and weighed WAY MORE

    You look amazing! i actually said Wow out loud at my work desk. Is that a OKC Thunder dress you're wearing? I used to live there, but the AF moved us on to Japan.
