This is it! I actually exceeded my goal! This was my weigh in on Friday July 20th. the morning of the “bikini run.” I am not quite sure when, but at some point since January 3rd., I decided that 125 lbs would be my goal weight. My reasoning for this is because that was my weight when Ben and I met. Don’t worry, the battle is far from over! In fact, it will never end until I am dead and gone. Now, maintenance begins. I have not quite decided how I will incorporate this into this blog, but I do plan on keeping you up to date on my maintenance.
Here are my last two sets of weekly stats:

This was at the “Sage Family Reunion Picnic” the day after the “bikini run.” It was a little award ceremony for the “bikini run.” My sister-in-law, Rachel, came in 1st. Sam, my son, came in 2nd. John, my future cousin-in-law came in 3rd. Blaine, my uncle, and I came in 4th and 5th. We ran together so we finished at the same time. My mother made the awards so she put me in 4th. I love my Mom!
I remembered to bring my camera to our 2nd. half marathon. But, then I forgot to take any photos. I came in ~ 1 minute slower than my first half, but I am totally fine with it because it was probably my best long run ever, and I still came in under 2.5 hours! I just felt so good for the entire race. Ben rocked it! He shaved over 5 minutes off his time, and came in under 2 hours!

This is what 123 lbs. of me looks like. These are not very good because I had to cut them up. I did not get permission from anyone else to show them in their bikinis. I am obviously not wearing a bikini, but I think you get the picture. I am just not going to run in a bikini! The only alterations I made to these are that I cut people out out and lightened them up a little.
So that’s that. The end of my weight loss journey, and now on to my maintenance journey!
You look freaking AWESOME!!! Good for you! Proof that I can have an orgasmic relationship with food and still be fit 😉 Congrats to you and Ben on the run!
You have inspired me to kick start my “diet”. I’m now counting calories, and I stick with it because I can see your results. Thanks!
