My Journey so far

Great montage.

 Very inspiring and handsome too! Congrats on your success! May you have many more successful healthy years.

Andrew,

Thank you so much for sharing this.

While I'm not at the point of doing any kind of marathon, you give me hope that maybe one day I can run a whole 5K. I'm a bit older than you (53)and have knees that hurt, so running a 5K is a big dream for me.  I walked one last fall.. was the next to the last to come in.. ROFL.

For the record, I do workout a LOT.. yoga/pilates, rpm (aka spin), body pump, step, zumba and am currently doing a "biggest loser" bootcamp at my gym (don't expect to win the prize.. but what the heck, might as well give it a whirl  ::grin::  Nothing ventured, nothing lost).  I know about the couch to 5K program.. just haven't done it yet.  I know I should.

Banded in 3/09.. am currently bouncing between 196 & 198 lbs, but folks tell me I look less because of muscle toning.  Bought a size 16 jeans last night.  About a month or so ago, I was buying 18's. woohoo!!  No band problems that haven't been user caused ... too big of a bite or such.

Again, thanks.
