  1. Hey everyone!!! :)

    I have recently been extra inspired by @MercyMercydys to go all in on my fitness journey!

    I have been working on it for a while, but have not stayed consistent. So, I am finally in the right head space, and am settled down with a set work and school schedule now, and am choosing to make fitness one of my top priorities. Not only do I want to slim down a little bit and tone up, but I want the amazing feeling that come with working out and eating healthy consistently. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle overall improves both my physical and my mental health, and so I cannot wait to share this journey with you guys!

    I started my journey at 171 lbs, and I am now 165- off to a good start! The goal is to lose weight and then add some more on in muscle.

    I will continue to add on to your thread, and encourage to leave workout ideas, hiking spots, healthy recipes, and share your fitness progress with me too! :)

    Here is a picture of me working on my 100 ones of water for the day last night!! I was successful :)

    [​IMG]

    I have made some more progress!! I went from 165 to 161, and I have never felt better! Eating better and staying more active truly does make me a much happier person! Here is a picture of me sparkling, not sweating ;) , after a cardio session!!

    [​IMG]

    Update!!! I weighed in this morning, on September 3rd, and I am now down to 158.1 lbs! I am absolutely loving the gym at my new apartment by the way! The cardio equipment in there is top notch, yay! :)

    [​IMG]

    I was not as dedicated to my diet and exercise this past week, but I am not going to be hard on myself, I will only keep moving forward!! It was nice to indulge for a few days, but now I am more focused than ever! I weighed in today at 156.3 pounds!

    Mmm lemon-cucumber water has been my favorite lately! @MarliMichaels introduced me to it, and I am hooked!! It is so good for my skin, and yet so tasty! :)

    [​IMG]

    WOW!! It has been just one day shy of a month since my last health and fitness update!! I am now 150.0 pounds, over halfway to my goal and I am feeling so great! Since it is now freezing outside most of the time, I utilize the treadmill most days for my cardio. I love to walk on the highest incline as fast as I can, because it helps to prepare me for hikes, and it makes me a quick walker for when I am speed walking across campus every day lol! How have your guys journeys been this past month? :)

    I have added some muscle strengthening exercises to my daily workouts, and I am feeling better than ever! I am finally starting to tone up in my arms and more in my abs. Tomorrow morning I go to the doctor and weigh in, so I will keep you posted! :) (10/22/2019)

    I am now in the 140s finally! I am just a few pounds away from my lightest weight ever, which was two and a half years ago. I am excited to see my body transform in a way that I have never seen before! What is your favorite workout to do? A couple of mine are crunches and planks! (10/25/2019)

    So I have been doing a wonderful job at maintaining my weight, and have been doing my best to keep up on a regular gym schedule! Here is an update for you! Please excuse my morning face :p

    I had to go into the doctors and found out I needed to start working out and doing cardio. @AbbyAvery was my gorgeous cheerleader and motivator! I haven’t missed a day! Down below 230 lbs and can run a mile in less than 8 minutes! Being in shape is a great goal. For me as weird/good as this may sound...I want to give you girls the best me...so when I take off my shirt I can lift your eyebrows..just like when my jaw hits the floor after your dress does ;) Best of luck summer, can’t wait to see your progress!

    Congratulations, Summer! One of the great things about getting healthy now is that it makes it much easier to stay healthy when you're older. You just develop these great exercise and eating habits and then continue them into your 40s and 50s without thinking about them much.
     
  19. Your journey is inspiring and motivating Summer. I love reading these success stories. Living our best life is what its all about right!! You go girl!

    I have been in a slump of late working lots of OT at the prison. However, I went to see my Dr for a viral infection & I weighed in at 227 down from 250 lbs.

    I did this by cutting out soda, hiking 2-3 miles a day. This Fall/Winter I Will still hit the trails but also utilize the gym & swimming pool & get back to eating better.

    I plan on doing some hiking in Death Valley & Lake Tahoe when I come for a visit first week of December.

    You look amazing @summersage!

    My motivation was my job, I have to be able to respond to emrgencencies & perform @ peak condition & the first one I responded to I was out of breath I was no good to my fellow officers that depend on me.
