Well...it's been quite some time since I have blogged! At this point, I am 47 pounds down and 13 to go till my FIRST goal of 60 pounds. I have completed two running races and love the look and feel of "my new body". I have been very discourgaed with how long it's taking me to move thorugh this decade of weight! Up down, up down, but of course, I have cheated here and there! I must remember to keep on working out and running to help me sustain/lose more weight! Hang in there everyone! If you need to chat, check out my page and add me as a friend!

Just finished my first race this morning! Please pop by my page and check out the photos!

I began Nutrisystem on September 30, 2009, and now it's January 30, 2010. I'm down 43 pounds in four months and still going strong! Thank you, Nutrisystem, for changing my outlook on life and love for myself! Check out my page for new photos:)

WOW...my shipment was sent on Wednesday and delivered tonight at 7:30 pm! I am continually pleased with NS's service (as well as UPS's)...thanks!! And the best part...my 40 pound bear arrived! I didn't think I would like the color (green isn't my favorite), but it's beautiful! It quickly took its place next to the other three bears, AND my black cat quickly jumped up and tried to knock it down! My new bear loves its home already:) Have a great evening all!

Went out last night to dinner, a movie, and dessert so I had to do double duty on exercise today! First came my 30 minute "Couch to 5K" running workout and then...my favorite - ZUMBA!! I am pooped:) Since I ate so much last night (my first "planned" splurge since October), I told myself that I couldn't have breakfast till after my workout. Boy...do I love the cinnamon bun! Have a great Saturday!

Ok....got all dressed to go workout this evening, at about 8 pm, and found out the gym closed early due to a tornado warning! What's weird is I live in Arizona so a tornado warning is nearly unheard of! Crazy weather outside but I know nothing compared to NS friends in other states! One thing that surprises me - I am sad and upset to not be doing my running workout tonight! Just three months ago I would be jumping for joy over the fact that the gym closed, glad I am learning to love exercise! Happy Thursday, friends!

Today was weigh in day for me...started September 30th at 210 pounds and now, as of this morning, weigh 169.5!! That's 40.5 pounds in 110 days (2.52/week and .36/day). I'm very happy with my progress and love exercising 6 days a week! Check out my page for new photos. Have a great day, everyone!

Just finished week two of my training (Podrunner Podcast) for a 5K...and I felt so good today! It was actually easy so I'm glad for a tougher workout in week three! Have a great Sunday, everyone!

Just was able to find some "before" pictures and took one this evening...39 pounds later. I still have quite a bit to go, 21 pounds, but having a great ride with Nutrisystem!

Getting ready to "hit the sack" so I thought I would check in with everyone! I am looking forward to two laps around the track after work tomorrow with my running buddy (we're training for our first 5K on Valentine's Day)! This will be the first day that I have trained on the track. I am usually at the gym on a treadmill. Secondly, I am excited about hitting 40 pounds very very soon! I am just one pound away...hopefully by Friday! Welcome to all the newbies! Hang in there..NS is an amazing program! I started on September 30 and couldn't be happier:) Have a good evening all!

Well...had a great workout at the gym! So this is after deciding to try a half marathon in March! What a great workout today! Thanks to a NS blogger I found a great series of podcasts on iTunes that take you many weeks as you prepare for various distances. The first series will get me running 5K after 9 weeks. This is 5K without stopping! WOW...for me, that will be amazing:) Happy new Year to all! Keep on exercising...I know that I will!
