well yesterday i walked on the treadmill for 45 min at a fast pace and it felt  good. Today's work out is a run /jog combo for 45 min to 1 hour. Today i received a  couple of compliments  and i was asked what was the goal i said 220-215  it felt good and i hope i inspired the people who asked me i also had to put another hole in my belt and looks like i wear a size 44 again  but depends on the pants but either way i am not doing this to get anyones approval or to put on certain cloths i am doing this for me. If it wasn't for zac and fawn teaching me  i would have been gaining weight instead of loosing  it! I am slowly but surely learning my limitations and  not craving any of that  fast food  so i am getting there

Well now i am out of recovery week  and Fawn was not kidding when she said it was going to get harder. Zac is introducing weights mixed in with cardio. Fawn upped my calories a lil bit so now i need to push alot harder to meet the goal that we set for the beginning of the new year, which is  220 lbs  but its not about a # it is about new lifestyle!  I know I can reach that goal with my everyones support  I also set a goal to run a 5k in February so i have to work extremely hard for those goals especially for my self.
