    What a difference a year can make!

    A year of working hard and making changes to my diet that is. Don't give up on yourselves ladies. If you're trying to get more fit and healthy, you CAN do it.

    I meet with a trainer three times a week. I've really cut back on sugar consumption. I eat a lot more protein, less fat, more complex carbs.

    Yeah, what they said! Your arms are amazing!

    hijack--How do you get the number flag (can't remember the name of it!) to lie flat on your TYR race belt? The clips seem too close together, and I get a big gap in the number unless I stretch it out to the point it's uncomfortable (and digs into my waist). Looks like last year you poked a hole in the number in a different spot. TIA.

    Last year we did poke a hole. But that's too much work. I just used the holes in the number this year. It doesn't look flat when it's just lying there, but it does look flat in the picture. I wear the belt so it's comfortable and don't fret about the number being flat. There's enough other stuff to think about when I'm running.

    I could title a post the same way and show how much I've gone downhill in the past year! A shot of me before we left NC and one of me now? It would be downright SCARY.

    Nope you can't do that. You've started a program to get yourself in shape again. Stick with it and then do a before and after picture.

    Oh, most definitely! The 'befores' are frightening but motivating...

    But seriously, you have made fantastic progress. You should be very proud!
