This is me-before. Cort and I decided to start Body for Life this week and this is my official before picture. Last week, I crossed the abyss into the 130s. I don't think I'vev weighed under 140 lbs (minus pregnancy), since I was in 6th grade. It seemed like I would forever be a 140 kind of girl, but nope! The scale surprised me and I've maintained my new 138 lb. weight for a whole week. That was just the boost I needed to keep going and have a specific fitness regimen. I don't really care about losing weight, I'm doing this to be stronger and feel better. And honestly, I already do. In the Body for Life book, it says to write down your goals and read them often. So today, I will share them with you.1) Look at myself in the mirror and think "Yeah! I look good!"
2) Be able to not have my legs rub together when I walk and finally have toned thighs.
3) After goal #2 is met, I will be rewarding myself with this running shorts pictured below. Of all the miles I've run in my life, I have actually never worn running shorts, because of chaffing from lack of goal #2. So now I will have toned legs and sport real running clothes- the mark of a true runner.
In addition to this new commitment, I will also be training for some races coming up to make up for the poor performance at the 5k of recent posts. They are as follows:
Dead Celebrity (5k), Halloween
Columbus Turkey Trot (5 Miler), Thanksgiving Day
Wish me luck!
