That is, until last week when I came down with some wacky stomach bug. That thing put me out of commission for five days! I was itching to get back to running, but part of me was dreading it as well.

When I got back from my run today, I decided to make a quick video. Check it out.

I started on my journey to getting healthier on 4/6/10. Since then, I’ve lost over twenty pounds and I just feel so much better overall.

Here’s a picture I took near the beginning of my weight loss (it’s post workout so I’m sweaty):

And here’s a picture (also post workout) from the other day:

Twenty pounds doesn’t seem like that much when I say it to myself, but looking at these pictures, you can definitely see at least a bit of a difference.

It feels great! Now I just need to keep it up. I still have another fifty pounds to lose!
