I'm on a mission to create my best self and my live my best life possible!

This is the account of my journey to a healthier, happier, longer life.

I know it's not always going to be easy. I know there will be ups and downs. I know there will be smiles and tears. I know there might be times I want to give up and quit.

But...
I know that I'm worth it. I know that I'm ready for this. I know that I can do this. I know that I will do this. Just watch me.

Follow along as I create the person I was meant to be. This is gonna be good!

Total Lost: At the most, I was at 117 pounds lost. Currently (May 30, 2012), I'm at 92.6 pounds lost.

I lost 117 pounds in just under a year! Now I'm trying to get a handle on this whole "maintaining weight loss" lifestyle.

I went from an obese-fast-food-over-eating-dr.pepper-addict-unhappy-unhealthy-couch-dwelling-twenty-something to a weight-watcher-runner-p90xer-happy-healthy-confident-thirty-year-old.

I've completed 5Ks, 10Ks, a 15K, some half marathons, and a vertical/stair race. I'm doing the Warrior Dash in June and the Chicago Full Marathon in October, 2012.
