"Before" and "After" ish...

The picture on the left was at the harvest festival for Mtn. View church on Oct. 31, 2010.  The one on the right was taken after my workout by my trainer Leslie Raper on January 26, 2012.  I am down 55.1 pound as of this picture.  I a little over 1/3 of the way there.  Thanks for supporting me on this journey. 

I hope to get to my measurements next week.  I didn't measure on the 10/31/10 because honestly a regular tape measure wouldn't fit around me.  I measured in Sept. 2011 so I'll use those as my starting point I guess. 

Still working on C25K on my own and running with my trainer.  Yesterday I jogged 46 mintues and covered 2.75 miles.  Yeah me.  Registered for first race on February 11, 2012.  So much is happening.  I'm excited.

Hang in there and have a GREAT weekend.

Just a Few Pics

I need to take some updated photos, but here is where I came from (in various stages).  Thought you might want to see.

Family Vacation 2007????

Nathan and I at Arlington National Cemetery in Dec. 2007 (I think)

Another shot at the dedication

These aren't the best....here's a reminder of my "before" pic on October 31, 2010.

Tomorrow I will be taking some new photos.  I hope to load them to show you my progress.  Also I will be posting some measurements. 

Here's to a healther, happier, thinner me!!!

Here Are Some Pics....

So here I was in November of 1994. I had these glamor shots made to send to my boyfriend at the time. He was a Marine stationed in Okinawa, Japan. This "me" seems lost forever in SOOOO many ways. This is a good AND bad thing. I'll blog about that later.

And here I was on Oct. 31, 2010 the day I REALLY started down a new path.  This path to health, wholeness and FREEDOM!!!  Big change huh???  Nevertheless...here I am.  Same in so many ways and different in others.  Just thought you might like to see.
