So here we are on week 9 of my weight loss and week 6 of my 5k training program! I have now gone from 321 lbs to 300 lbs.! I have dropped down to a smaller size pants and I am wearing shirts that I have not worn in a while! Not only that but I feel better and want to do more activity, which is great because I have a youth group that wants to do nothing but run run run! I am thankful for those who have kept encouraging me in this and who are checking up on me!

So I am about 3 days late on putting this post up but here we go! I am in week 5 of the couch potato to 5k and I am going to say that I never thought that I would be able to say that I intentionally got up at 5:30 to go run and run on a schedule without the incentive of having a coach busting my tail about running. I have now lost a total of 19 lbs. since Feb. 1st and keeping it up and pushing through. I would like to give props to Brent Phillips for keeping after me to post on my blog at least once a week!

Week 4

I am now on week four of my get healthier plan! So far I have lost 17 lbs and and have kept up with the Couch Potato to 5K program that my church is doing! It sucks that I have to get up at 5:30 MWF of each week but it really makes my days go by much easier with more energy. Along with the exercise that I have added I have also started watching the stuff that I am eating. For one I have cut down the amount of carbs that I intake during the day! Also I have cut down on the amount of food that I eat. This is my attempt to blog my progress! I still suck at this but eventually I will get better.
