Hi everyone!
I wanted to share my progress pictures. I started this very slow weight loss journey in June 2010. I still want to lose another 5-10lbs, but it's a start and helps remind me how far I've come, and to appreciate myself, and help motivate me to keep going to reach my goals. In the first picture of each set, I was around 160 lbs right after I had my baby. I can't tell to much difference between the second and third pictues, but it was only a 5lb difference so I didn't expect much! Most of this weight loss is due to Turbo Jam and also running. I did not do Turbo Jam rounds every day or follow the program, I just did it whenever I needed a break from running! I am happy to say I accomplished four 5k's this year, which is a lot for me. My last 5k was right before Thanksgiving, and I completed it in 29 minutes, which was 5 minutes faster than I did it in the same race last year! My goal was to do it in 28 minutes, but it was the coldest day so far this year (at 12 degrees) and was snowing for the first time this year! It was truely beautiful to run in the snow with a few hundred people. I am proud of myself and have my MFP friends to thank for all of this. They have motivated me to stay on track, and have inspired me to take up running (even if it is only 5k's). I'm not sure what goals are on hand for next year, maybe more 5k's, maybe 10k's! But my ultimate goal is to just be happy with who I am and to make more friends to help inspire me to be the best/happiest/healthiest person I can be! I am always looking for more friends, so if you are serious about this shoot me a friend request!
