My First 90 Day Challenge

WOW! It has been 90 Days since I made a conscious decision to lose weight, start getting fit, and better my own life! They say, "Time flies when you're having fun!" THEY'RE RIGHT! I can't believe that the 90 days are up already!

Before I started THE Challenge, I was the heaviest I've ever been in my whole life. Weighing in at a STARTLING 220lbs. Eek! (I can't even believe I'm posting that on the internet.) I was unhappy. I hated looking at myself in pictures (and that's sad, because I have a four year old, and I want him to have TONS of pictures of his family), I felt horrible (sleepy, sluggish), and my plantar fasciitis was HORRIBLE (I mean I could hardly get out of bed in the morning, because those first few steps were unbearable).

A friend from high school had been posting a bunch of success stories, and pictures about the 90 day challenge. She and I had talked about it multiple times before, but I wasn't ready to dedicate myself to it then. Then one day I decided to just go for it, contact her, get started, better my own life.

BEST DECISION EVER!!!!

My goal for my first 90 day challenge was to lose 25lbs.  After talking to my friend, we decided that was a nice realistic goal, and a great starting point for my end goal, which is to lose about 80-85lbs.

It wasn't easy, it took making the right decisions every.single.day. But at the end of this first challenge, I am EXTREMELY happy with my SUCCESS! I lost 26lbs!!!

Here are my Before & After Pictures:

Do YOU have 90 Days to DEDICATE to bettering yourself???
