It's hard to believe that I'm more than half way to my goal. Including weight lost before joining SP, I'm 65 lbs. down, 45 more lbs. to go! Not sure when I'll get there...but I will get there!
I will probably never have washboard abs and I will always bear the consequences of being over 100 lbs. overweight, but I'm doing it and I'm not looking back!
I choose to love my body, just the way it is, right now--battle scars and all.

Personal Information:
In January of 2012, I got to a point that I could no longer neglect my health. I was at my heaviest weight ever and was heading for a milestone that I never thought that I would get to.
I went to the Internet, searched for a 5K and signed up. Needless to say, I SHOCKED my family. They were very supportive, especially my sweet husband, who is my #1 cheerleader.
Last year, I did 3 - 5K's and 1 - 10K and lost 45 lbs.
After my last race, I started back with my old habits and gained about 15 lbs. back.
I've now started SparkPeople and have short, medium and long term goals to help keep me motivated.
