I feel like Forrest Gump!

[is thin possible?]

Wooohooo! I have successfully run two consecutive miles without stopping! This is a real milestone for this formerly overweight woman...who was never even able to run that far in her high school days! I told my husband when I came home, that I felt like Forrest Gump! Tee hee!

The inspiration from this board has kept me on target and motivated and helped me realize the amazing power that I have within! One of my favorite quotes is this: "If you push the human body it will respond." Boy...is that true! My body has evolved into a health machine over the last year due to this way of eating.

Thanks everyone!

You are cuter than Tom Hanks, though! And you've stayed away from the box of chocolates.

WAY TO GO!

Run, cutie! Run!

I always run in my dreams and wake up only to realize, "oh yeah I'm fat". I'm not so fat now, but not ready to run yet. I hope to be right there with you running soon. It feels so good in my dreams.

Thanks for the inspiration and congrats on being so close to goal!
