I can deadlift 300 pounds, and do 5 consecutive pull-ups!7

Run for 30-40 minutes. 30 seconds used to be a challenge!
Do half a pull up. Still gotta jump to get half-way up, but then I can lift myself up the rest of the way. Just hanging from the bar used to be too painful.
Love this thread!!2 -

*I can do splits on both sides. I'm still working on those middle splits though.
*Climbing stairs is still tiring but MUCH easier without excess weight to carry up.
*I can cross my legs without trying and without discomfort.

Great thread!
I can eat salad without dressing (used to need to slather it with blue cheese or caesar dressing)
Cook healthy
20 consecutive push up on my toes
10 burpees in a row without getting winded
Hold a plank for 5 minutes4 -
I used to put out my arms like a little kid and have my hubby pull me up off our (low) couch lol. Or I would have to lean over and push myself up with my arms. Now I can get up with just the strength of my legs/abs. Seems crazy to think I used to be like that.3

I can run. I can walk quickly up hills and not only not hate it, but not notice a change in my breathing. Stairs are a breeze.2

My fit through the door to the restroom without having to squeeze my arms into it.3

I can climb up in my nephew's playhouse and go down the slide. I have energy to keep up with my own boys. Pretty great!3

I can run 4 miles in under 50 minutes4

Run for 3 minutes. I started at 30 seconds, so 3 minutes feels like forever, but I can do it.
I can also button my favorite pair of jeans without using the rubber band trick I learned while pregnant.3 -
I've gone from struggling to get up off the floor to squatting 65 pounds.
I can lay on my tiny couch without removing the back cushions.
The floor stays dry when I take a bath.
My feet don't hurt anymore.
Walking up the steep hills in my neighborhood has gotten so easy I am starting to run them.
I bought winter clothes a little snug knowing they will be too big by spring.5 -
I can play with my kids in the those indoor playgrounds often found in science center/museums without worrying about getting stuck.3
