Well Good Morning! My good friend suggested I join here to help with the motivation I need to shed the last 40 pounds. So, here I am! Over the past several years, I've made some strides in changing my life. However, it's been the past nine months that I've made the biggest change to my life. I went from not even being able to run 30 seconds without falling over, to now - I can run seven miles straight and still feel great afterwards!
-
- So far, I've lost 60 pounds. I've dropped a total of two sizes in clothing, and I'm now able to wear juniors clothes. I used to wear the lower end of plus size clothing in Women's. Talk about empowering! I will turn 30 in a few short months, and I feel and look better leaving my 20's than when I entered my 20's.
-
- The goal I have for my 30th year is to run a half marathon. I'm so excited, and I feel this goal is completely attainable. I just need some extra encouragement and motivation to make this dream a reality!

    Fantastic effort. I'm looking to shed about 60lbs to get back to running again. Used to run 25/30 miles a week and really miss it!

    Feel free to add me.
