I've never been athletic, I even found a way to go for walks instead of doing actual gym class in high school. But, now I'm really into running, and am feeling amazing.
I started this journey on MFP on January 5, 2013. It started with a resolution to "drink more water". What a change.
I am training for a 10K race with my sister in law, which has brought some motivation back to my daily routine. I had fallen out of it for a while, even gaining 5lbs back in one week. Yikes.
But, I am so proud of myself. I have officially dropped 30 lbs (at my weigh in this morning, not official weight in day, but I don't care!)
Since 2011, I have lost over 50lbs, and have gone from a size 20 to a size 12/14. It's sooo nice to walk into a store and be able to try things one. I have never done that before. I weigh less now than I did in high school, even my prom dress is too big!
Well, here are some pictures taken on day 1, and today. Excuse the gross hair, just finished a work out! Same shirt was used as comparison. Also, the other piccy was just before a run the other day
