I am the poster child for "Use It or Lose It". When I was turning 30, I gave myself an IronMan distance triathlon as a gift to myself. I had already completed 6 marathons so decided to enter my 30's with a big accomplishment under my belt. I was in the best shape of my life.

That was 10 years ago.

Enter a busy career, having a child, lots of date nights with the hub eating a lot of food and drinking a lot of wine, and here I am, almost 40. I stepped on the scale on January 6th and saw the highest (non-pregnant) weight of my life. I can't go back and change the last 10 years, but I can take charge of NOW and that's what I'm trying to do. So, here goes!

Starting weight (1/6/14) = 173.6
Current weight (2/28/14) = 159.6
Goal weight (by 40th birthday, 9/14) = 135

I just completed Jillian Michaels' 30-Day Shred and will start her Ripped in 30 on Monday. After that, I will start P90X. In addition to these videos, I also run 20-40 minutes on the treadmill daily and do one 60-minute Bikram yoga class every Friday. And of course, I track my food on MFP!

    Great job! I can never get through that DVD. I get bored about two weeks in every time I try.
