i like jogging!

Thursday, May 10, 2012

I am still amazed that I actually like jogging , and in fact want to jog more... Yesterday instead of going to the gym, I went out for a jog around the neighborhood. I went for an hour straight without stopping, including up a half mile hill that goes up about 125 feet in elevation. Pretty slow pace over all, only 5.2 mph, but I could have kept going if I didn't have to go to work. I am thinking maybe there is a 10k in my near future, I will have to start looking into that. :) Love, love, LOVE being healthy!!

Great job! I went for a jog/walk for the first time last night as well. It was perfect weather. I can't jog for too long, but I did what I could. Report Inappropriate Comment

buying clothes

Friday, May 04, 2012

I went to a store to get a pair of shorts for work today. It is still so hard to believe that I fit into a size 12! I picked up a 16, and thought "Hmmm, these look pretty small, they'll probably fit, but I'll take a 14 too, just in case." I got in the dressing room, and they were both too big! Went back for a 12 and they fit perfectly. I have to say, it really made my day :)

  

Made it to the 150's!

So excited I weighed in at 158.8 this morning! I got close a couple of times in the past few years, but never got below the low 160's. I hope the rest of my day is this good! :)

I am really proud of myself today...I jogged for a whole hour for the first time ever! My previous record was 40 minutes. :) A whole hour and more than 5 miles. I NEVER, EVER thought I would jog at all and look at me now. I love being healthy!!!

One year SP anniversary!

Friday, February 08, 2008

Wow, I've been with Sparkpeople a whole year! I am proud to say that in the last year I have lost 78.4 lbs thanks to SP, and I have a whole new set of healthy habits -- I even eat vegetables now! I have gone from walking to jogging. From Size 22 to 14. From waiting for the elevator to taking the stairs.

THANK YOU SPARKPEOPLE!!!
