How I did it
How to weigh less than 200 pounds
It took me
175 days
It made me
strong-willed

How I did it: i could go on about this for hours, but in a nutshell, i joined a gym and strictly watched what i ate. i fell off the wagon a couple times like almost everyone does... but i realized i could start over again the next day. sorry that i don't have an updated photo to go with this. i figure the 210 picture was good enough.

How to be able to jog for thirty minutes
It took me
60 days
It made me
proud

How I did it: i lost about 50 pounds first. then i started jogging around my neighborhood in the mornings. after i lost another 10 pounds, i started jogging on the treadmill at the gym. i waited until i lost a lot of weight so that it wouldn't as hard for me and so i wouldn't be as embarrassed jogging at the gym in front of the other people. i focused mostly on endurance, not speed. every time i went to the gym (5 days a week), i would jog for a period… Read how I did it…

How to invest my money in a cd
It took me
100 days
It made me
smart

How I did it: i read a few financial blogs in the past that talked about cd laddering with your emergency fund. i sadly, do not have an emergency fund anymore, but i wanted to start a cd ladder regardless to get it started so that when they mature, maybe i will have more money by then to add to new ones. anyways, it is pretty simple to set up a cd ladder with ing. they basically do all the work for you.

okay, so i am just barely under 200, but i know that i will stay under 200 so i am marking this goal complete.
there was nothing better than getting on the doctor scale at the gym and moving the bottom 200 notch to 150.

Untitled 2 weeks ago

my left leg now has a shin splint. so i’m gonna have to take a little time off from running. this really sucks. but that’s what happens when i push myself to run more than 10% more each week.
