My List

Last time I posted I wrote that I would make a list of some of the positive changes I've seen in myself over the last three months. So, here goes...

1. I can run almost 7 miles at a time.
2. My energy level has gone through the roof.
3. I am starting to eat healthier.
4. My house has been noticably cleaner.
5. My moods have been better.
6. I am more efficient at work.
7. I can chase after my kids when they try to run away and actually catch them.
8. I am seeing muscles I haven't seen since high school. Hello, my lovelies.
9. My double chin is more like a chin-and-a-half instead of a double chin.
10. My waist is starting to narrow.
11. My legs are becoming more shapely, at least around my knees...my upper thighs still need help.
12. I actually look forward to running.
13. I am tolerating the heat better than I ever have.
14. I love to sweat. But only when I am running. And only when it doesn't sting my eyes.
15. I don't feel complete if I didn't run on a planned run day.
16. My husband wants to run.
17. My children get excited when they see someone running or if they see me dressed for a run.

There are more, but this is a good start. I am pretty amazed that I've been doing this for over 3 months and I am still going strong.
