Default One YEAR!! Thanks, Cathe!

I just wanted to post my success so hopefully Cathe will see - I'm bubbling with pride.

Let's see... I started out just dieting with Weight Watchers and I was successful, but I didn't keep it off after I hit my goal weight (lost 50 then gained 30). I was bored with gym workouts, couldn't make gym classes, and tried working out with videos off and on for a couple years until I decided to get serious last December 26...

It's been a year now and I've got muscle tone! I have kept working out 5-6 days per week for the entire year (excluding illness & vacation). I started running in April, I attended the Cathe Roadtrip in July! I am back down to goal weight and looking and feeling great! Here are some photos for comparison:

(after) Me at Baltimore Running Festival, October 2005

Thanks Cathe! I don't think I could have done it without the jumpstart that I had with the January & February rotations in 2005. I'm going to start out 2006 with the rotations again! I can't wait to see what's in store for January!!!!

What a difference! So how much weight did you lose? You should be very proud 'cause you don't look like the same person!
Just Do It! :-)

Thank you!!

I lost 30 pounds, but my measurements are smaller than they were when I was at this size after reaching Weight Watchers goal weight! :)

Wow Kim you look great!! I've been off the computer like forever, lots of personal things that needed taking care of. So when I saw your login name I had to check it out.

I'm so proud of you girl!!!!! Keep it up. So nice roomin' with you on the Roadtrip. Hope you had a nice Christmas.
