My first ever progress picture. Never thought I'd be brave enough to do them lol. I have so many friends on here who inspire me & motivate me to be a better person not just physically and healthily but in every other way too. If I can inspire one person to love theirselves unconditionally and strive to be their best, then I am a happy girl.

Last September I knew it was time for a change. This is when I started easing into a running program with couch to 5K and then went on to train for and run my first half marathon in March 2012! This is my before pic (Sept 2011) vs my after pic (April 2012).... 8 months after my new training program i am 50lbs down, lots of energy totally different outlook on life. I am always here for anyone needing a motivation partner, help with food or exercise or just needs a friend! Thanks for all the support!!

    Congrats that is such an outstanding change! Keep up the good work. I also find it inspiring that you were able to lose 50 lbs in 8 months. I have been stalled for about a month now and I just keep working out and eating properly and just started to see the scale move this week I am hoping that for next weeks weigh in I finally see a difference!

    You are inspiring to me. You also look amazing... the smile on your face tells it all. You have a lot to be proud of!

    True inspriation. You look AMAZING! My goal is to lose 50lbs as well. May I ask how you did it? Was it just running? I run on the treadmill, at leat 5 out of 7 days, for 30 minutes. Thanks so much for sharing......you have no idea how much motivation that is to me...and others!
