5 Months and the Journey Continues...

Today is my 5 month anniversary using MFP. I know I love seeing peoples transformations and I'm proud that I can join the ranks of those who have changed their lives. MFP has introduced me into a new love, fitness and a new hobby running.
Not only have I went from not being able to run a mile to completing a half marathon, but my proudest moment is a facebook post my sister-in-law posted this weekend. "Woohoo! 10 pounds lost and I received 5 compliments yesterday about how great I looked. Now if I can get into exercising, I might become a super star runner like Ally ******! "
I never imagined that what I was doing would inspire others in my family. So the next time you think about quitting, don't only think about letting yourself down, but think about someone who is looking to you for guidance. Maybe that will motivate you to keep going.
Here are some my photos.

Wow what an inspiration! You started out at what I'm starting at. You look awesome! My goal is 125 because that is the smallest I've ever been when I was working out like crazy in high school and really happy with myself. I could never dream of being 120... Did you ever think you'd get there? How tall are you?0

You totally got this!just curious but did you do a particular program...and did you do anything besides running...you look awesome btw...and congratulations...that's the same kind of transformation that i'm looking for....

::goes to steal all your food diary:: haha! Good job! more than anything, I appreciate the reminder that getting in super shape DOES actually take time. I figure 5-6 months is forever, but I can either be in shape in 5-6 months or not. Easy choice!0
