Update

So, it's been a while since I've posted. Just thought I'd give myself an update (I'm sure no one else reads this).

As of Saturday, September 11, 2010 I've lost 35.8 pounds with my weight now being 182.2. I am now working on week eight of my couch to 5K training program (which is a 5 min warm up walk, 28 minuite jog, 5 min cool down walk) and am able to run about 2 1/2 miles in 28 minutes. My 5K is right around the corner (October 9th) and I'm REALLY excited about it.

I can't think of a time in my life were I've been healthier. I'm eating better than I EVER have; excercising a ton; and just feel better overall. I'm really looking forward to making goal, and though I have a while before I get there I'm really enjoying the ride. I don't feel deprived and I'm very happy with my decisions.

For anyone that may stumble upon this post and may be struggling with weight; take a look at weight watchers. It's a great program that teaches you how to eat healthy and not deprive yourself. It's unlike any other weight loss system out there. I truly believe it isn't a deit, but a lifestyle change.
