  • I finally ran tonight!

    I have never been a runner. Well....tonight the kids and I went for a walk and ran every third block. I'm exhausted, but I did it. We were gone for over an hour. It sure helps to have 65 pounds gone. The beautiful weather sure helped too. I love spring!

    Thank you everyone for always supporting me when I needed it and kicking me in the rear end when I needed it.

    I was down to 175 in 2007 and I will get back there again!

    That is amazing, Michele! Congratulations on this great accomplishment. I can't wait until I am able to run again. I know it is so far away still, but with each passing day I am moving closer. Gratz again!

        Congrats... Pushing ourselves to new heights of exercise or depths of pain is just one example of how far we've come from former selves. Good job!

          Thanks everyone. I'm actually not sore today. I was last night. I guess I slept it off. The kids are already asking if we are going again tonight. It is nice to be out exercising while at the same time having good moments with my kids.

            Impressive! I say that with a bit of jealousy, since I couldn't run for 20 seconds if my life depended on it (YET)! But that's a great accomplishment, way to go! Next thing you know you'll be signing up for a marathon!

            I did Extended Induction from 1/3 to 5/9 (2006) and lost 55 pounds, so I know I can do it again!

            The reason I quit...

              LOL I don't think so. My front of my legs hurt while walking last night. I thought I better wait a day or two befoe running again. My husband thinks that I should just stick to walking long distances instead of running. I want to run just because it pushes me to do something that I have never done before. Last year I couldn't go up the stairs in my home without being out of breath, and now I can walk for 2 hours no problem.
