Birthday shoes!

Posted by: Fat Pants In: progress photos

Well, even though my birthday isn’t until next Monday, I couldn’t stand it anymore and finally begged DH to let me open my birthday present:

My shoes! My shoes! I strapped them on and went for a little jog up the street. I can already tell the stability support is WAY better than my old shoes. Hopefully this will put an end to any remaining shin splints once and for all! They are super awesome. I am basically in love.

DH also took a pic of me in my running get up last night, and I was amazed. Sometimes it helps to see things from a different perspective, because I STILL see the 213 lb Fat Pants every time I look in the mirror. I mean I look at me and I’m like, how is it that I only have 41 lbs left to lose before goal? It does not seem like that much in numbers, but it seems like I still have 70 lbs to lose when I look at my body.

210 lbs. Blah.

186 lbs! Running has done me some good.

You look amazing! I love the new shoes. I already wrote down I needed a pair of running shoes. Who would have imagined- a few monthes ago I wouldnt have known what to do with them!

Thank you for the comment on my page. It really inspired me. You are SO right && I really liked the quote from CS Lewis. He is a amazing Christian writer. God bless during this journey.
