Go "big" or go home
Update January 2015:
Holding steady weight wise. A few lbs up & down here or there. But down 15 or so since the start of 2014. Still have more to go, but for now my focus has shifted to strong. I started lifting again in 2014 and cannot get enough. Having an easy barometer by which to measure progress (NSV's) is great. I can squat more than I could a few months ago, run faster, lift more, plank longer. I am getting fitter, even if my abs (where are you, I know you're in there!!!) & the ...

I can squat more than I could a few months ago, run faster, lift more, plank longer. I am getting fitter, even if my abs (where are you, I know you're in there!!!) & the scale don't show it yet.
So, lets see. What's on tap in 2015.
1. Climb Mt. Kilimanjaro
2. Marathon #3 in May. EEK!
3. Rumors of a Tough Mudder sometime later this year, June maybe? August maybe? Some friends and I are trying to plan, hence the indecision.
4. Hopefully Ragnar DC again in the fall, that was too much fun in 2014
5. A triathalon
January 2014:
Here I am, again. I've never stopped logging in & tracking exercise. But more often than not I eat "healthy" only to add up calories later & realized I was way off track.
So, after reaching my heaviest weight EVER, I was finally at a point where I knew I needed to come back and start over. Having my knees hurt when I run wasn't something I ever expected, and something that really made me realize I needed to make a change.
I am realizing I CAN say no to free food, cookies at work, and going back for seconds.
I already know how many amazing fitness feats I can accomplish. I have run numerous races, including half marathons & marathons. I even spent 81 days cycling cross country in 2012.
I have big goals, including completing my first triathlon in 2014. Getting to a fit weight, in a healthy way is just another on my list. So here we go. Again.
SW: 160 lbs
GW: 145 lbs
