My Weight Loss Journey

Remember two years ago when I decided to change my lifestyle and lose weight?

Well, I HAVE changed my lifestyle. I work out more often (5 days a week). I eat better. I sleep more.

And yet…I lost a lot of weight at the beginning and am only marginally losing weight now. I’m almost at my goal, but not quite there! I know exactly what I need to do: hunker down and do more strength training (I stopped for a while because…I’m not exactly sure why I stopped, to be honest). I know building muscle is the most efficient way to burn calories. But I haven’t had very much motivation.

Until now.

A few months ago, I was filmed for a news story about workout apps. And now it’s up on the interwebs, and I’m looking at all my lumps and bumps and realizing that I need to tone down a little more. Maybe a lot more. So I guess I found my motivation!

The news story itself is actually really helpful, and if you are in the market for some free apps to help you lose weight, track your workouts or your calories, or if you just want to see what my lumpy self looks like when I jog, here’s the video. Enjoy!

P.S. I do have “before” pictures from 2009 that I will post when I finally get down to my goal weight and can take sexy “after” pictures.
