Starting Line

49- what this number means to me? Nothing! My journey for becoming a better me started on 10/11/16, 170 days ago, I decided that the number didn't matter! But what numbers did matter? What mattered was that I overcame my need for supplemental oxygen while running longer then 1min, going down 5 jean sizes, running my first 5k, all 3 miles under 12 min! Running my greatest distance at 7.1 miles on 3/19/17 and not needing CPR! Signing up for a half marathon of 13.1 miles in 11/17! Numbers are literally everywhere!!!! What did I gain that has nothing to do with numbers? Self esteem, confidence, and not avoiding every mirror in the free world!!! I am proud of my accomplishment! I am shy when people point it out, but most of all feel AMAZING! So, long story short 49 is the number of pounds I have lost since my last documented weight on 11/3/16! Never stepped on the scale after that date until yesterday! This number means NOTHING!!!! I don't care what it says! The proof is inside me!!!! My 40th bday Vegas trip was my first goal and here we are! I'm ready to rock some awesome outfits and party like I'm 21! Thanks to everyone that has supported, encouraged, or commented on my hard work! It truly kept me going and to continue going! I'm not done yet!
