I’m scared that my body is trying to settle in at this weight. I’m scared that my body is comfortable at this weight. While my body may (or may not…I may just be at a plateau and freaking out)be okay here, the rest of me is not. There, I said it…

How I did it: I enjoy 'me time' by working out, running, reading, taking a bubble bath. I just relax and try to enjoy the moment and what I am doing. Sometimes I am surrounded by friends and sometimes it's just me but each time I try to enjoy it to the fullest. I've learned that by me enjoying 'me time' I am more useful and present when I am with my family. Read how I did it…
How I did it: One pound at a time. I watch everything I eat. I exercise between 6-8 hours a week doing Zumba, Kickboxing, Boot Camp, Toning and Running. I just keep going, keep moving...determined! Read how I did it…
How I did it: One pound at a time! Watching what I ate, exercising a lot...lots of hard work. Lots of fun and self discovery as well! I exercise a lot...usually about 8 hours a week...doing lots of different things (see below). I watch everything I eat. I TRY not to get discouraged at a set back but I'm human and I do get down in the dumps...but I KEEP MOVING!!! Giving up is not an option! Read how I did it…
See all "How I Did It" stories...
I completed my first ever 5K in 108 degree weather…I was hot and miserable…but I finished. AND…I finished in under 1/2 marathon per mile time (18 min/mile pace). The feeling of accomplishment you get from crossing that finish line is nothing short of awesome! I didn’t run the whole thing (I actually walked more than I ran) but I finished and that was my goal. It was AMAZING!
I am three pounds away from a 50 pound loss…yet I keep teetering back and forth between the same two pounds and cannot seem to get it going! I am so frustrated and have decided that maybe I’m not being serious enough about this…maybe I am getting a little two relaxed. So…time to kick it back into high gear with the food restriction and exercise. I walked/jogged two miles last night and tonight is Zumba…I have been controlling my calories much much better than the last two weeks…I’m coming up out of this rut and will see this 50 pound loss soon! In the meantime I am aggravated, frustrated, scared and annoyed that this seems to be taking forever. I was never off track but as of right now (two days ago actually) I am walking straighter and more narrow. Time to do this thing! There, I said it…
