My story is very similar. Ditched the alcohol first, then the girl, then got fit. Congrats on your sobriety and on getting fit!

Did you get a date with a girl? Or do you have an actual girlfriend? How do you have a girlfriend if you have not been asking questions/having conversations all along? How many dates have you guys had before you asked her to be your girlfriend?

Update: I'm that crazy girl who ran the marathon with one day of preparation. I'm glad to say that I'm actually training in advance for the 2016 marathon. Here's my 2016 training plan: (modified Hal Higdon training plan) In 2016, I don't plan to be out there 5 hours and 47 minutes. I plan to be properly trained for a…

Check this out: Salad in A Jar

No, you have not washed my car, power washed my home and driveway. Please let me know when you do. Maybe you can do these things for me while I'm at the gym.

I run because my body is able.

I had a board made by someone on etsy. I had a custom message put on it: "Trained for a 5K. Ran a Marathon. Anything is possible." It has pegs on the bottom to hang medals on. Like this: I continue running when I drink water.

Yup. I went to my local store, had them check my gait, got the shoes there. While I was at the checkout holding my wallet, the guy at the register saw my military ID and offered a military discount. Score. I ordered 2 more pair online. It was worth it to pay a little bit more in person to the folks who took the time to…

I threw out apple cider vinegar tablets that expired years ago because they didn't help with getting fit or weight loss. There are tons of websites that claim ACV does all sorts of things, but in reality, they don't aide in weight loss or getting fit. What are you taking fish oil for? They might help with your wait loss…

Try Oh Yeah! Victory bars. They are cheaper than Quest.

Chicken and stir fry veggies

Chicken and veggies. I make a large batch of food at the beginning of the week and have food ready all week for work. I also have a cucumber and tomato salad. There's also another thread here where people share what they are eating...…

Selfies? Yes, sometimes. Do I post them on social media? No. Definitely yes to progress pics.

Yesterday's run still is not in MFP. Programs are connected. Logged with GPS.

I drink water only. It's not really a diet for me. It's just what I do. I think that drinking water only helps prevent water retention. Of course, if I eat salty foods I am going to retain water.

Quote from your profile: As a friend: I will like 94% of your status updates (weight loss/gain, diary completed, general chitchat) and be there for virtual hugs and a shoulder to cry on. Also from your profile: Why I want to get in shape I don't. Please give OP a virtual hug, people. Please. Also, be there for OP to cry on…

Awesome! Keep up the good work. :)
