Running off the pounds

I am 37yrs old married with 4 young children. I have had a bad thyroid for many years and it really makes my weight go up and down. So I have to really watch what I eat. My wife got me into running long distance and I became instantly hooked. We have run 3 half marathons together. I want to go from weighing 215 to 185.

“Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” ~ World Health Organization

It seems like many of us face a continual battle to stay positive when little progress is apparent. We just have to keep in mind that we our efforts will result in a healthier life. We need to focus on how we are feeling and the energy we have to accomplish daily life tasks. I’m working hard to concentrate on my health rather than just on the number on the scale; to concentrate on non-scale victories to help me stay positive every day.

Marathon Dad I read one of your blogs & checked out your Spark Page. I think it's awesome that your married to your best friend & now she's your running partner! I am also lucky enough to be married to my best friend as well! However, we have a long way to go before we start the running thing. I think we will do the walking thing for now!!! By the way you & wifey make a cute couple & have darling children!
