Long Time For Shame

I know it has been to long since I have posted. I have been so busy with school, the kids, the husband, getting healthy, and oh yes WORKING OUT. I am happy to report that I have made it through my first round (and then some) of Turbo Fire. August 9, 2012 I was 272 pounds when I started. Today December 17, 2012 I am 223 pounds. HOLY CRAP right?! I have had a big change in not only my thinking but also my eating, and exercise. It has been a great change and I love what I am doing and who I am becoming. None of my clothes fit, well they do but I am swimming in them. My goal is to be 200 by March and 180 by July (or below, I would happily take below :P). So Nov 21, 2010 I was 301 pounds 2 years later I am 78 pounds lighter. DANG that is a lot of weight, and it is just going to keep going up (the amount lost that is). It has been such a tough road for me, but I have done it and I continue to do it. Nothing special, just eating right and working out. I have even started running, well jogging but hey 30 minutes of jogging is a HUGE thing for me. I owe it all to my husband and kids, and an amazing friend Andrea, she has really pushed me and been my cheerleader. Not to mention my workout buddy the past few months. I know I could not have done it without her support and I will forever be thankful. So when you are feeling down or don't think you can do it, find someone who will be there to motivate you, to encourage you, maybe even workout with you. It takes one person to be your anchor, but it takes you to keep going an push yourself. Only you can accomplish it no one else can, and by everything in me I WILL and AM accomplishing it!!
