The Beginning....


...as Mary Poppins tells us, is a very good place to start!

So - I am Meg - a 42 year old stay at home Mum (Mom) with 2 adorables (17 and 10). I'm an Australian living in Denver, Colorado and this year have decided to start running. That's all thanks to Mama's blog.



Here I am - I forgot to take a photo of me before my workout this morning - but here I am in my comfy clothes. It's 5*F(-15*C) so we need to be warm. Let me tell you that I wont be going anywhere to impress today!
These jeans used to be pretty tight - now they are almost falling off - love it!!






My start weight! I am doing Weight Watchers and my weigh in day with them is on Fridays. But here is what it looks like this morning!

So the running bit? Because I had been following Mam's blog for a bit and saw how much she loved running, I thought that I would give the Couch to 5 k program a try. This morning was Week 3, day 1 (W3D1), and I am LOVING it! That was totally unexpected!

Up to now I have been doing a lot of Lesley Sansone's Walk at Home DVDs and loving them. But I just wanted to mix it up a bit - so that is where the C25k came in.

So that's about the size of it. I'm using this as a bit of a journal for my weight loss journey and as a bit of accountability! Would love to have you along for the ride!

Have a great day
Hugs
Meg
