Almost 50 lbs down. Tummy pic heavy!
So I'm less than a pound away from having lost 50 lbs since January of 2011. This hasn't been easy. I've been up and down. It's been frustrating. But seeing the changes has been SO worth it.

NSV - I have muscles!
I went for a massage because I've been having some shoulder/neck pain and the RMT asked me if I wanted him to work on my calves/legs as well because I mentioned I've been running lately. As he's working on my calves (ouch btw) he says "WOW, you've really got some muscle here in your legs" I remember growing up always…

Concussion :(
I found out today that I suffered a mild concussion at hockey last night (I blocked a slapshot and it rifled off my helmet) - no wonder I had a pounding headache all day today! I've been told that I shouldn't perform any vigorous workouts for at least a week and now I'm worried, seeing as I've been exercising 4-5 days…
