That brings me to 643/3000

As to what motivates me, it's the before and after pictures below. Losing 117 pounds changes who you are and your entire life. Everything has changed for me. I never, ever want to go back to being that person again and if it takes leaving my house and running at 4 in the morning, I will gladly, gladly do it. I also like that it gives me control because eating is something I will probably always struggle with. I run or walk every day so even on my bad days, all is not lost.

I also love the feeling I get - especially after a 10 miler which I do at least once a week (including this morning). I'm not fast at 43 and it takes me a long, long time but the feeling stays with you all day long. You just feel like you can do anything. There is nothing like it for me.

My hero!

And who cares about the speed?

At 45 I'm no Speedy Gonzalez either but at least I'm off the couch and in better shape than many other women my age that I know. Be proud that you are too!

Had every intention of running 7.5 miles today, (even if it did rain the whole time)

, but thanks to work interrupting me, I had to call it quits at 5.98. However, that adds 67 minutes to my January total to 183/1300.

60 minutes of yoga and 60 minutes of running brings me to 120/1000.

Butterfly123 · 01-05-2013, 10:26 PM

30 minutes of rebounding takes me to 330/1000.

Quicklabs · 01-06-2013, 07:40 AM

I have done over 10,000 steps/day, even with the ECV, so I decided that I can count aerobic steps walked toward my exercise time.

So, let's see...Here's some walking time.

Jan 2 - 16 min
Jan 3 - 13 min
Jan 4- 10 min
Jan 5 - 24 minutes

Today - Realized that I waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay overdid it yesterday at EPCOT Yeah, I guess I still need the ECV.

Adding this to previous total, we have

103/600
