So my new and surprised exercise is Running!! Never ever ever thought I'd say that! I've been walking/jogging 2-5 miles 5 days a week. Now I'm running 2-3 miles 3 days a week and walking 5 miles 2 days a week. Depending on time. I have lost weight, but "I" personally can't tell a difference!? The scale and tape measure says I'm losing but when I look in the mirror I don't see much change. Sooo back to the point of this post. I'd like to see pictures or hear stories of runner transformations.

  • My daughter (age 29) started running a year ago and has completed a couple of half marathons and one full..........she lost over 50 lbs and her body has changed in so many ways. She battles endometriosis and PCOS and has had trouble with her weight most of her life. The running has trimmed and toned her whole body. Her back fat has nearly disappeared. Her legs look fabulous. But best of all: her belly fat has diminished considerably. Just keep at it. She didn't see a lot of results at first either but after several months there was just this magnificent change that seemed to come out all at once. Hang in there!!!
