Life is pretty sweet!

A little over one year ago I was extremely unhappy and overweight. My weight had ballooned up to a staggering 180 pounds. For a 5'2" girl that is such an uncomfortable weight. My 2007 New Years resolution was to make a commitment to myself and lose the weight. I got myself a trainer and changed my eating habits. Now here I am a little over a year and a half later... 51 pounds later.... a personal trainer myself and having competed in my first triathlon this past August! I wake up every morning ...

All it takes is commitment. YOU CAN DO IT, YOU ARE WORTH IT!

Reecca - the Yarmouth Pumpkin Run was GREAT!! I kept to my own run/walk thing, but ended up beside a woman who does marathons (except now she's really pregnant!), and I think she helped me pick up the pace. So for me, I did a great time and I was just so happy afterwards - and more in love with running! I wrote about it on my blog, if you'd like to read it.

When is your next race?

Hi Rebecca!!

Welcome to the Making the Cut team!!

Congrats on your amazing journey!!

I'd love to hear about your experiences with triathlons. A spark friend and I are toying with the idea of a half IM in 2010... hehe.

Hope you join in on the discussions on the boards!

Rebecca -- I'm from Gray! (but the lake in my picture is Long Lake in Naples) I'm actually going to do my second 5K in Yarmouth next weekend - the Pumpkin Run! I'm looking forward to it!

Where are you a personal trainer? Do you do that out of some kind of gym?

Happy Almost Weekend!

Sharon

Just passing by to say hello and give some encouragement.

You CAN do this!

You have done what you could.
Some blunders and absurdities may have crept in.
Forget them as soon as you can."

Thanks for adding me as a friend! emoticon It's so nice to see another person from Maine on here. Where in Maine are you? I'm in Sanford.
