Megan B lost 1.51% this week!

My three goals for this competition would be:

1. To get to the point where I "LOVE" running. I want to love it. I have loved it before. Its just the actual getting there that is hard for me. Those first few jogs burn my lungs and my legs feel like they are caked in thick mud and just won't move like my brain imagines they can. But then on day 4 or 5, I know my legs suddenly shake the mud off and things get a little easier. So for me, it's just a matter of DOING it. Run. Run. But it hurts. I don't care, Run.

2. Lose the chunk. Like so many other moms I know, I have some extra "cushion" ;) after having my baby boy. I have SO MANY pairs of pants, shirts, and scrubs (and let's be honest, those things are expensive! Especially when you have to wear them everyday to work!) that would fit me if only I could lose some of the chunk on my hips, thighs, and the toosh. I want a runner's booty. If I can get that runner's booty, then all of my clothes are going to fit again. Probably a good 2-3 inches all around would be perfect (to start).

3. Prove to myself that it IS all about what you put your mind to. I know I can achieve a fitness level that not only is going to have me looking absolutely amazing, but that will also allow me to live the fit life that I have always admired. I know I can do it, and I can do it without a pill. I can do it without expensive equipment. I can do it without a personal trainer. I can do it because I have the determination, motivation, self-control, and support to do it. It's called "moving". If I can just make myself "move" a few times a week and increase my intensity, technique, and duration each week then my goal can be attained.

4. I am going to add this one because it's something I have always wanted. I want chiseled arms. I want those kind of arms that you look at and go "Wow." I want the muscle to show. I want to be able to have the chiseled look when I'm NOT flexing. You know what I'm talking about....Jamie Eason type of arms. (ps. I tried to find a picture of my favorite fitness model showing her awesome arms.....but apparently she likes to be scantily clothed quite often. If you google her to see what I'm talking about, you might want to google: Jamie Eason fully clothed. Just an FYI haha!)
