Had another kid and I'm back at this weight loss...

230 again...


224.6

I started running again, and also doing pilates at the Y. I'm counting points, Weight Watchers Style, and staying accountable with my friend Laura, and hopefully going to start using this blog again.

Non Scale Victory -- I ran 3 miles yesterday. And then today I did my entire pilates class without modifications. This is maybe my 4th or 5th week of it, and I've always had to do the modified plank, or not hold it the entire time. This time I was able to do a real plank and hold it the whole time just like the skinny minnies in that class!

My goals are to keep this up. I will be turning 30 in 6 months! I really want to accomplish my original goal of being in better shape by the time I turn 30 than I was when I turned 20.  I am sure if I just keep doing what I'm doing I'll accomplish that. I don't think I could have run 3 miles when I was 20. I'm definitely heavier, but I'm defining my fitness based on my weight alone.

I weigh-in each Monday, so hopefully I'll update this blog with my weights each week. But I'll also keep track of the "nsv"s. I'd like to get my 5k time much faster, and I also want to run a half marathon the day after my birthday.
