I was so excited to step on the scale a few days ago and see that I have officially lost 50 lbs! While I'm a lot closer to my goal than I was 8 months ago, I still have about 12 lbs to go before I hit my first big goal. From there, I'll re-evaluate and see how much more I need to lose after that. This weight loss has been really hard but I have learned to take the challenge head on! When the weather warmed up, I traded in my gym membership for a pair of running shoes and hit the trail! I run between 4 and 5 miles each day ( running about 40 -50 minutes at a time) with strength training every other day and I LOVE it. Here are a few pictures of my favorite jogging trail:
Who would wanna be inside on a treadmill when you've got such a scenic trail?
Here is a before picture of me 50 lbs heavier ( there aren't many- I was pretty good at dodging the camera)
And this was taken a few days ago. Still lots of work to do but I am very proud of my progress. Sorry about the cheesy " self portrait" Mike wasn't home!
I have a doctor's appointment coming up on Friday and I can't wait to see how my blood levels have changed! I'll keep you posted.
