UNBELIEVABLE! I may have had an epic fail on the Valentines Challenge, but I am slaying this spring challenge. Weighed in this morning at 163. Five pounds down week 1. This 10k training is making my body become a fat burning machine. I love it!!!

And to top it off. Today is a beautiful day. I have to work in VA Beach today so I am gonna take a run at the beach today instead of being cooped up inside on a treadmill. Everyone have a great day!

Checking in..... 1 pound down!!! 191 today!!

Start out the month good lost 3lbs but then gained it back +1. This morning back to 235 so no change for me.

Checking in at 214 this morning. Woo hoo! 4 pounds. Let's see if I can keep it off.

Checking in at 254. Down 9 lbs do far. 14 lbs more to go for the match challenge. I had been gaining for months before this. I just got back with the program on march 1. That's why I had such a big loss for the week.

Checking in at 143- no loss for this week. This is hard, but I did eat quite a bit this weekend. Thankfully, the Girl Scout Cookies are gone and I'm heading out for a six-mile hike in a few.

Happy Thursday, everyone!

up 1 pound to 228 Stinks!

However... I was measured at the gym for the first time since 12/29, AND I have lost 19 inches! oh and I ran on the treadmill!!!!

I guess exercising is working !!!!

You know that your weight lose is working when you can measure how much you have lost from your waist size in feet.

BTW your before and after pictures show what a tranformation you have made. Not only are you thinner but you so much more cheerful and happy than before.

I don't remember if I posted, too lazy to go back- I lost 3 obs last week- from 261 now 258. It's been a looooong time since I've seen that decade, LOL.
