#200poundgone

Oh, you know, just taking a break during our walk today 😘❤🏃‍♀️ Made it to the hardware store and over to the lake to throw some rocks. The kids made some friends at the store, got 4 miles of walking in, and we all got to chuck rocks into the water... not a bad day if you ask me! 🤷‍♀️😂😘 #weightloss #motivation #goals #transformation #transformationeveryday #halfmysize #dontevenrecognizemyself #180poundsgone #andcounting #190poundsgone #200poundgone #200poundclub #200poundslost #neverquit #worthit #instafit #fitfam #fitness #happy #healthy #fitnessfriday #walk #throwingrocks #stressrelief

A little different 'before-and-after' for #transformationtuesday 😉 Just finished up another walk with Mark and Olivia. Got in 3.8 miles despite the heat, and it always feels great to get outside with the kids!🤪🌡😓🔥🌞 This is just but 1 example of how my life has changed drastically in the last 9 years. In years past, it would have been far too easy to use the heat (or whatever) as an excuse as yo why I shouldn't walk and I should just sit in the AC with my Netflix. Now, I plan ahead for hot days and head out a little earlier to avoid some of the heat. I make sure to stay hydrated and keep the kids as cool as possible. I may even have a popsicle or something as a treat when I get home. I try to eliminate every excuse as to why I *shouldn't* and remind myself exactly why I *should.* Throughout my whole journey, the biggest #transformation has definitely been my mindset. There is nothing like taking something that was once an excuse and viewing it as a challenge to be conquered. The heat today was definitely my challenge, and I'm so proud to day I didn't give in to my excuses and saw it through to the end. Find your excuses and turn them into challenges... I promise, there is no feeling quite like it! ❤😘 #weightloss #motivation #goals #transformationeveryday #halfmysize #dontevenrecognizemyself #180poundsgone #andcounting #190poundsgone #200poundgone #200poundclub #200poundslost #neverquit #worthit #instafit #fitfam #fitness #happy #healthy #beforeandafter #beforeandafterweightloss #weightlossjourney #weightlosstransformation #redhead #walk

Happy #facetofacefriday ! Sometimes I look in the mirror now and I nearly recognize myself... other days I see old pictures of myself and cant believe I ever looked like that. No matter what though, it's always good to see how far I've truly come. The left is 9 and a half years ago around my heaviest of 359.6 pounds. The right is today around 150 pounds. A total loss of appx 210 pounds 😀💪😘 Small changes add up and nothing is impossible if you put your mind to it! ❤ #weightloss #motivation #goals #transformation #transformationeveryday #halfmysize #dontevenrecognizemyself #180poundsgone #andcounting #190poundsgone #200poundgone #200poundclub #200poundslost #neverquit #worthit #instafit #fitfam #happy #healthy #beforeandafter #beforeandafterweightloss #weightlossjourney #weightlosstransformation #redhead

Shout-out to the most graceful goose I've ever met! Went goose chasing with the fam on our walk today, lol.

"I rip holes in my shirt There's mud on my shoes There's sun on my skin, I am brand new... It's just a matter of time Don't you get it?" Feels so good to get back out and enjoy the beautiful weather! 🌞❤😘 Took the kids out for 2 walks today and saw some gorgeous scenery. Made it a total of 22,000 steps today... roughly 10.5 miles 😄💪🤗 Days like this remind me of how far I've truly come. When I first started, walking around the block took everything I had, and there were plenty of days that was too much. But... I kept at it! Eventually 1 block became 2... became 3... became a half mile... became a mile... and now there's no stopping me! No matter where you are starting from, you can do it! I started at 360 pounds and never dreamed I could do it, but I knew I had to try. Now, 9 years later I'm never looking back! ❤👍😘 #weightloss #motivation #goals #transformation #transformationeveryday #180poundsgone #andcounting #190poundsgone #200poundgone #200poundclub #200poundslost #neverquit #worthit #instafit #fitfam #happy #healthy #beforeandafter #beforeandafterweightloss #weightlossjourney #weightlosstransformation #redhead #motivation #walk #walking #walkingoffthepounds #park #lake #portagelakes #plx
