    going back several years I was strutting my stuff in a size 22 jean.  Thanks to running, cross training and good eating I easily put on a size 8 skinny jean today.  Smallest size ever!!  I am so happy I could scream!!

        Well done and congratulations are most definitely in order. Smile

        We can let the circumstances of our lives harden us so that we become increasingly resentful and afraid, or we can let them soften us, and make us kinder.
        We always have the choice.

                    Great job!  I've had the same transformation. As a guy, I've dropped from a size 40 to a 34...mostly thanks to running. I ran my first ever half marathon in December at 2:01. Now, I've signed up for 4 halts in 2013.

                     

                    Keep on running and enjoy your life!
