Finally

I pledged to myself that I would work on getting in the best shape of my life. Little did I know weather and womanly cycle would f things up! So yes it rained a lot but I was also in the most horrendous moods thanks to mother nature. I finally went out on my first couch to 5k run last night and did far better than I ever expected. Katy Perry's "teenage dream" was my soundtrack and I must say it really cheered me on! I decided to be brave and post a pic of me post work out. Yes,  I have lost 130lbs, Yes I had a tummy tuck but No I do not at all feel thin or sexy. Yes I stil need to tone my body but I have always been honest and up front. So here is my soft body! Working it's way to hard.

ZUMBA

Tonight was Zumba. I love it so much! At the moment I am signed up through my local parks and rec, but I think I may get a membership to a Zumba studio. I find myself smiling during the workout! Gotta love that!

Moving Forward

It's been almost 3 months since my surgery and life finally seems to be evening out. Healing from the abdominoplasty was far more challenging than I expected. My muscles are still sore and tight. I have started doing Zumba, but that just isn't enough. I have about 10-15lbs I want to drop, but the bigger picture is that I just want to be healthy. Granted I am far healthier than I was at 300 lbs, but like most it could be better.
So I am doing another challenge. This one is my 9 week fitness challenge. I am vowing to spend the next 9 weeks getting in the best shape I have ever been in. Thanks to friend on FB I found something I think will really work. It's called Couch to 5k. I had never heard but it looks great. Check out the schedule here. I realize this is just a start, but that's just it a start. I feel like that's the most challenging part. I'll be checking in periodically so check in, comment, follow, and join in! Let me know how you are doing!
