    I can run 4 miles in 40 mins WITHOUT stopping! I used to have to run 7 mins on, 3 min walking. Next month, I want to say I ran 5 miles in 50 mins! :bigsmile:

    I fit my pre-pregnancy clothes again! I only had one skirt and a pair of pants but I was so happy with it. And I honestly can say I start to like myself when I look at myself in the mirror.

    I can do squats now. I was not able to do them without wanting to fall over before.

    I can go to sleep really early.... and not cry and whine when I have to get out of bed the next morning to go work out. I complain, but that's because my cat is still in bed all warm and comfy looking at me like I'm a sap for getting up. Hmm... this makes me want to go take a nap. Can't, gotta take the doggie to the park.

    Time to bump the thread. Today, for the first time EVER I did some burpees. They weren't pretty, but I did them. About 4 of them total. I was too afraid to even try before. Take that fat!!! So, what about you...what can you do now that you couldn't 30 days ago?? Let's hear it:wink:

    Run 1.6 miles with no walking. Halfway to my goal of being able to run a 5K. Since the 5K I'm doing isn't until May, I'll have plenty of time to get the other half and improve my speed.

    THIS!! Too funny -This is exactly what I was going to post. :) Today I ran 22 minutes without stopping - that was 1.6 miles. I'm slow, but 30 days ago I could only run for 5 minutes at a time. I'm making great progress and my 5k is the end of May, so I have lots of time to improve, too. :)

    Jog/Walk 7.9 miles in 1 hour and 37 minutes. I was also sore for next 3 days but it was worth it.

    I can do the "crab walk" at the gym halfway across the basketball floor. I can also do the girl version of push ups (okay I can do 2 push ups) but still!!!! I haven't been able to do either of those things EVER in my life! I'm PUMPED.

    I couldn't do any pushups now I can do 15 (girly style though lol) I also couldn't hold a plank for as long as I can now (2 min WOW!) and I broke my record for squats just last week with 250 squats (spread them out over the whole day hee hee)
