So close, yet so far

April 20, 2010 my battle began. After two kids my weight had crept up to 214. Not too happy with the number on the scale I began to do something I HATE... RUNNING. I started small at first. I would walk a while then jog a while til I mad it almost around Lake Sacajawea then head back to the car to go home. A few days a week I made my way around that darn lake each day jogging more than walking and trying each day to go further than the day before. At first the weight was melting off. Then it stopped. My mother-in-law came up with the idea of doing a weight loss challenge about the same time I stopped loosing so I decided to give it a try.

June 6, 2010 I was down to 206.2. At first the combination of running and watching what I was eating help the weight drop again. 2 pound here 2 pounds there, I was doing good. Then we would go somewhere and out of my daily routine I would barely loose anything and get frustrated. This is when I started eating cheerios for breakfast and lean cuisines for lunch and dinner. Being as strick with my food intake as I could I would loose again.

September 4, 2010 I was down to 190.2 and done with the 12 week weight loss challenge. My team Won but now back off my routine I am up 4 pounds... time to switch it up again! So here I am blogging. Putting it all out there for the blogging world to see. I hope that by putting this out there I will hold myself more accountable. I guess blogging is just a public way of writting in your diary in a way so here goes the next step of my journey. Wish me luck!
