Mom On A Mission :: Week 9

Stacy has lost 11.75 inches so far!  Check out all of her stats and some more pictures on the Mom on A Mission page!

In Stacy's words :
Wow!  I can't believe that I just ran 6 miles.  A year ago at this time I would have thought that I couldn't even do 1 or 2 miles.  Jogging is getting easier and I feel so much better.  I actually enjoy it!  I have more energy and endurance.  I must admit that the 6 miles wasn't easy and I am a little fearful for the half marathon, but as I've said before there's no turning back now.  Everybody in the running community has been very welcoming and I know I can do this - sore knees and all.

I have to say that I have felt a bit guilty though.  Work has been keeping me pretty busy and my time with the kiddos has been a bit limited.  Taking the time to work out has restricted my time with the kiddos even more, but I know getting healthier will benefit both me and my family in the long run.  Sadie, my little girl,  has been exercising with me which is super cute. 

My hard work has been paying off.  People are starting to notice my weight loss and my clothes are so much more comfortable now.  I can put on a pair of jeans and not be anticipating when I can get out of them.  Some of the clothes that I got for Christmas are too big now.  Darn!  I am so grateful for Tonya.  Thanks for believing in me Tonya - I don't know where I'd be without you.
