My first 5k...
This past weekend I completed my first 5k. While I didn't do as well as I would have liked, in the end I can say I completed it. The trail was up and down hills, through the woods, running on grass through a horse pasture, and running on some rocks which I took a slide on and got some nice abrasions on my elbow and knee.…

10 Weeks down, 2 to go...realizations I have come to...
As I start week 10 of my twelve week weight loss program I thought I would post what has been going through my mind lately. Some of it is weight loss related and some has nothing to do with weight loss but rather my most recent ex. Some reading this may feel that some of what I am about to post is inappropriate but it is…

In my 12 week program we get on this scale at the beginning, the middle, and the end of the program. At the same time they also do body measurements. Well I just completed week 7 so besides just…

NSVs and Victories on the Scale…
I have sat over the last couple of days and really done some reflecting. Actually the last 6 weeks or so has been a time of reflecting and change for me. I started 6 weeks ago on a journey that was bound to change my life. If I stuck to it, it would be positive. If I chose to fail, it would be negative in drastic ways.…

Reflection after Counseling and Working Out...

Over the last month, I have learned that weight loss is so much more than a physical transformation. It’s mental. There is so much psychological and emotion that go into losing weight as well…
