6/28/2014: So add to my list of challenges, on 12/31/13 I broke my ankle. Happy New Year, NOT! Surgery to repair 1/14/14, PT, yada yada. Have worked my butt off (literally) since getting back to the gym in April. I'm 13# lighter than at NY's and I'm feeling fitter and stronger. But I ain't done yet!!

My Goals:
To have the outside me better reflect the inner healthy me!
My Program:
1. Dress for success every day! In this case, workout clothes.
I commit to 1 hour of structured exercise 4 days a week. PUT IT ON THE CALENDAR!
2. PUT ON THE TIMER! Every 2 hrs, do a 10-min workout and eat. Try to get some protein in there.
Personal Information:
Baby steps:
178 - 9/16/13
160 - 6/1/14
158 - 9/1/14 -- way to go! 3 months to lose 2 pounds! Okay, I had a 2-wk vacation in there but this has to improve!
156 -
154 -
152 -
150 - This round done, Do it Again!
Other Information:
6/13/14 It's been an interesting road since the broken ankle 12/31/13, surgery, PT, etc, but I am so blessed to be back to working out and feeling strong.
