Hey ladies,

Weighed in early because i'm away from tonight and no scale access and will be eating what I want because it's my birthday Friday yes i'm 16 again :laugh:
I will face the damage on Monday which I suspect will be 2lbs or so but i'm cool with that.
So here goes.

This is the lowest weight I've ever been since being on Mfp and since I can remember so i'm really pleased.

SereneRose you're doing great...Congrats on your lowest MFP weight! You have a wonderful birthday weekend. Don't worry about anything except having a great time! After all you only turn 16 once:drinker:

I hope it's not too late for me to join the challenge. This will definitely be an added motivation for me!

Goals:
1. Give up sweet beverages as a daily habit.
2. Make it through a fitness class without stopping or having to do the modified version of the exercises
3. Run a 12-minute mile (been trying to reach this goal since failing my high school presidential fitness challenge )

I'll be back to working out tonight after taking 2 days off. My body wasn't very excited about me doing Cardio Axe and Turbo Jam back to back. I love that I'm looking forward to exercising tonight.

Hey girl!! I agree it's really exciting, seeing progress in our physical abilities! I keep saying ima run a 5K no matter how long it takes me to train!

Me, too! I really want to do the color run and the zombie run. Those themed 5k's look so fun!

Oh are you training, I'm doing the Couch to 5K program, you can get info at :

The program has you ready to run a 5K in 9 weeks but I am taking as long as I need to move through the weeks, and I 'm doing it on a treadmill, so ideally by spring I will be able to transition to out doors

OHHH, I'M SO IN ON THIS...
