We made it through a 12 week session of First Place. I'm so proud of the girls that were in the group, and I look forward to seeing some of them again in a second session starting in January.
In the mean time, I've continued to work out at Bally's at least once a week. I need to get more active again. I've lost a total of about 20 pounds! I'm around 190 now (I have been floating between 190-193 for a month now). The only reason I haven't broken the 190 barrier is because of my own shortcomings... not exercising enough and not being strict on my diet.
But what's great is that I see the lifestyle change - I LOVE to work out now and when I go to Bally's I'm pushing myself to try new things and do them harder. I ran on the treadmill tonight for a quarter mile. That is something I could NEVER do before.
I could go over all the reasons why it's SO worth changing your life and becoming more healthy - do it for yourself, do it for your spouse, do it for your kids, do it for God... the real question is - why not do it?
We only have one life. Live it. Now.
