30 before 30

Ok....TODAY is a big day for me!!! Maybe the best so far this year!!! You may remember a few months ago I starting running and dieting. No, I wasn't fat...I just didn't like the way I looked anymore. Plus I was starting to carry around a small keg in my belly. LOL When I turned 29 (January) I was the heaviest I had ever been in my life and I was NOT happy about it. I tipped the scales at 223, which yes, isn't that bad for someone 6'-2" but I could be considered over-weight. So in February I started busting my ass on the treadmill...and cutting WAY back on all the bad foods. Well today is the day that has made it ALL worth it! This morning, I weighed in at 193 pounds! A FULL 30 pounds lighter in just 5 months!!! That's a 13.5% drop in body weight! I am SO excited! My energy level is up! I'm more confident about the way I look. Life is SO good right now! It feels so good to set a goal and reach it. And I did it 100% honest! No pills, crazy diets, just hard work and cutting back on the sweets. Now it's time to set a new goal. I'm thinking 185 pounds is my new target weight. After that I'm going to start working out and toning up. I still don't have the six-pack that I wanted, but at least the keg is gone! LOL I'll keep you posted!
