I just wanted to share it with you all - today I ran on the treadmill for the first time ever. :)
I am so pleased with myself! I'm now down 15lbs, and finally starting to see a little bit of a win - yay :D

    Learning to push yourself is a hard thing to do. Crush self doubt and continue to kick some azz. Great work.

    That is sooooooo awesome, I'm so proud of you--get it girl!

    I still can't run on the treadmill for more than say a couple of minutes, but i remember when I first felt the urge to run and tried it and it was absolutely thrilling. You're an inspiration.
