Fitness Accomplishments

I don't usually post on here, but I wanted to share my good news with someone. I was totally up my fitness calendar from January and this is what I discovered.

I walked 81.94 miles, burned 22,798 calories, and met my fitness goal of burning 750 calories a day 4 times a week in 3 out of the 5 weeks in January (it would be 4/5 if I counted December 30 and 31).

This is the best month of fitness I've ever had! I just wanted to share. Thanks.

That is a great accomplishment! I think I'll check to see how many calorie I burned for January.

Well, I'm swimming almost a mile four days a week, which I love. But for me the real accomplishment since I started all this in August is that I can walk around places without my lower back screaming in pain. I still have some pain, but it is manageable. The pain was the whole motivator for starting this process in the first place, and for me it is a major accomplishment that it is working!

That's fantastic! Good for you!

My accomplishment: Last night I ran 5miles (without stopping) in 52minutes. 10 weeks ago I couldn't run the distance between 3 lamp posts without having a coronary.

It's nice to see someone post a fitness achievement rather than just a weight loss one. IMHO, this is about being fit and healthy not just skinny.

Keep up the good work!
