My 1 year "fitiversary"

1 year ago I decided it was time to stop "playing" with getting healthy, and really DO IT! I played with myfitnesspal pal for a few months, and lost some weight, but 1 year ago today I committed to logging it all, the good days, the over on calorie days...everything, My counter won't show 365 days, because some of those days were without wifi- at our cabin, camping etc. there were a few days when I was in the backcountry without the ipad and didn't log- a day of backpacking in Yellowstone, a canoe trip, a day of kayaking...(yah, I defiantly burned more calories than I ate those days). But I got back on when I was back to civilization, and tried to remember what I ate those days.

Now for the fun part. I'm down 67 pounds and maintaining since November. And here's a few progress pics.
Face shot:





I did a few triathlons, even at my heaviest weight, and can't wait until this summer to do one and see how much I've improved. My oldest son is on the cross country team at high school, and convinced me to sign up for a half marathon race this June. So I've taken up running. And love it!



Maybe I'm the only one, but I had a hard time finding pics of me at my heaviest, and the ones I did find, I was trying to hide behind people. I noticed I'm still doing that, even these latest pics taken yesterday- I'm hiding behind my sons so no one can see me. I don't need to hide anymore!





A huge thanks to myfitnesspal, and all my friends who are so supportive!
