A detailed journal surrounding weightloss, the discovery of a healthier lifestyle, and it's application to real-life at 20-something.
Welcome Message.
Benvenuto! (Welcome!)
This month marks just over 1-year since my journey with weightloss, health, and fitness has started. I've decided to begin documenting the changes that I continue to experience as I lose weight, become more active, and try new things. During the past year I've gained a love and obsession for running, turbo kickoboxing, and yoga. I've run 1 5K, 1 12K, 9 Half Marathons, and 1 21-Miler in 4 states since October 2009... and I'm nowhere near finished!
Changing your life, though, can really sometimes be a very lonely experience. And this is where this journaling thing comes in: a public connection to what would otherwise be a private experience.
My plan is this: be honest. I'm going to be documenting the food I eat, the exercises I do, and all the other things that happen during this journey to help me succeed... and talk about how I overcome the failures that will inevitably occur as part of it.
I'm not giving myself an exact timeframe, just the ultimate goal of being where I want to be in the end.
So here I go... across the start line of the longest marathon of my life. Scared, but excited as hell! :)

#8: Feeling GREAT!
Halloween is now 4 days away... 3 days until I'm at the Halloween Ball. How exciting, huh?! A ball! My second halloween single and I'm going to a ball! I love my costume, too. I've been working pretty hard to ensure that I'll look darned good in it and I can safely say I LOVE IT! Hearts galore so... it's perfect.
Haven't hopped on the scale yet this week. After a run I usually swell from too much lactic acid in my muscles, but am excited to see the results of next week's weigh-in. I've fallen back into routine pretty comfortably here and don't have any overlapping desire to be "bad." Nothing really to report about the ex stress-wise so it's shaping up to be a pretty fantastic week! :) All smiles!
