    I can do pull-ups, though I don't know how many. I got really excited and ran around for a while, celebrating. I'd never been able to do even a single pull-up before.

    I'm in a routine with BodyPump and have been increasing my weight on the bar. And I've started to see some shoulder definition :blushing:

    30 days ago I couldn’t run 5 minutes.

    Now I can run nearly two miles non-stop. :]

    Woww. That's amazing.

    Kneel down to pick something up without being in major pain. I"ve had back pain and knee pain for so many years, I forgot what it was like to NOT have it.

    In 30 days I haven't lost any weight, but then today I tried on my size 12 pants and they fit. So I've actually dropped down a size in clothes,

    One month ago I was only able to walk 2.5 mph on flat surface for 20 minutes. Now I can walk 3.1 mph on incline up to 11.4 for 30 minutes.

    Yesterday I tried on some large pants i couldn't pull on around my hips one month ago. Best part is they even look nice.

    Walked quickly up a very steep hill today - got out of breath - but I was late for a meeting and in a hurry. I recovered before reaching the building. I've not climbed that hill ever that fast or recovered that fast.

    not much really, because I just started, but one thing I am VERY proud of that changed since last month is my cravings for sweets.
    I used to eat them all the time, have sugar in my tea etc', but now I don't. if I really want chocolate though (usually I don't have it at home, but today I happen to) I just take a piece and eat it, although I found out that I didn't enjoy it (and it's my fave chocolate, too!). otherways I substitute sweets with fruits and freshly squeezed juice :) also, no sugar in my tea!
    hopefully, in another month I'll be able to add some stuff to this list :D

    Not die at the Sunday morning high impact aerobics class. I was close, but I made it through. I'd have fainted a month ago.
