5 years was a long time with even more changes~
Good afternoon all of my fellow 7/04'ers!
I hadn't checked back in for years, but am happy to see a few people still hanging around!
Lets see, I was divorced in 2005, and have actually just remarried this past March. My hubby is deployed for a year, and in the meantime, i have the last bit of weight to lose.
I had been able to drop down to 170 in 05/06, then bounced up to 191 by the end of last year. Since hubby's deployment in mid April, I have been able to drop 11 lbs, and I hope to drop down to 155 by the time he returns next April (25 lbs more to go). 90% of my meals are made at home and come from fresh ingredients. I droped the processed foods years ago, and never looked back! Although I get hankerings for the ocational bad food, I typically go home and find a heatlhy wat to make the "good version" ... i have a great pizza substitute, for example!
In the last year and a half I have completed 3 sprint triathlons and the last 4 years, my brother and I have competed in the Austin Urban Assault Ride (bicycling and mini-sports). I love my new me!
I do have to watch my calories, and such. In fact I use MyFitnessPal online to track calroies and exercise expenditure. (highly recommend the site). i do hope all of you are doing well, and loving life!
