Ok, so I get lazy really easily. I find myself thinking "you can have this burger because you have forever to lose this weight." Well NO MORE!!

I signed up for a 5K my company is doing on August 11th and you had to put a t-shirt size down (we all get t-shirts to run in that have our company logo on them) and I put down MEDIUM. But then I found out that the shirts run small (the last race I did, the t-shirts ran big which is why I chose a medium this time) SO, I could have gone back and asked if I could switch, but nope. I'm just going to train hard and lose the weight so I can fit into a medium!! :)

The motivation part is that I'm going to be running with my coworkers and I don't want to be the girl who looks like a sausage stuffed into her t-shirt! lol.
