amazing huh??

so on the left this is me (i know, i couldn't believe it either the first time i saw it) at my cousins wedding in 2002. and on the right is me from april of 2010, at callie's wedding. amazing huh what 8 years can possibly do to someone. ha.

so...... its common knowledge that i'm always doing something regarding my health. ever since i was in kindergarden. and this year has been no exception. i ran a 1/2 marathon in march, and haha, haven't really stuck to anything longer than a week since then. haha.

well my granny was going to undergo surgery, decided not to, and instead my dad's side of the family is going to get into shape with her. well, really just me and my dad. my aunts don't need to. well anyway tomorrow is weigh in day, and i'll post my accomplishment (whether good or bad) on here. i feel that if i'm accountable to here that mabye i'll stick to it. i'm going to get some real running shoes this week and start hitting the pavement. i went running 4 miles this morning (thru a cemetery and it was awesome!) and yeah, so now that i'm posting this to the world (granted only family looks at this) i'm embarrassed by the photo from callie's special day, and want to get back into shape. i had a rough start this week, but ended really strong. i've decided to bounce between eating 1200-1500 calories a day. my personal trainer told me to do this when i was seeing him in 2008. and yes, i was in much better shape then. ha. can't believe that was 2.5 years ago. time really does fly. and time is gunna pass anyway, so i might as well get on board. some inspiring quotes i stumbled across:

"If you focus on results, you'll never change.  If you focus on change, you'll see results"

"A year from now you'll wish you had started today"

i like them, and posting them along with the pictures on my fridge. good job andrea! haha
