decided today to finally say those magical words

I AM A RUNNER!!!! What does one mean when they are I am a runner, that is a question that know one seems to know.  Those who can only run a block can still be a runner.  To be a runner, means the dedication of practicing running no matter what gets in the way.  Today, I actually felt like a runner and am proud to say that I am a runner.  If you would have asked me month ago when I started this weight loss journey that I would consider myself a runner, I would have fell over laughing.  Something hit me Friday when I did Hustle for Hunger.  I feel like part of the running community.


So far this week I am down 2 lbs.  I am exactly 50 lbs from what I want my competition weight should be.  This is a bitter sweet journey because I have already lost 50 since Oct in 6 month period.  I think I can lose 50 more in 6 months and then use the other 6 months before comps to prepare and get more toned.  It does seem like I am working much harder now to lose the weight.  I feel another session with the nutritionist may be in order.

This was me 4/11/2014.
