Seriously I was that person, I had a million excuses. They were good excuses too. I have 7 children, I homeschool, I'm tired, stressed and have little extra money. Then I realized I wanted to be healthy and fit and have a more fulfilling life. The excuses just didn't seem to matter anymore. I'm still stressed and tired, I still have 7 kids, still homeschool and have little extra money. The difference is that now I know I can do anything I put my mind to. I make time to run, and eat right because I love me!! Who knew. Really if I can do it anyone can.Robbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12788242660040874176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3499041410735103265.post-43838203621254866332011-11-11T08:49:42.628-07:002011-11-11T08:49:42.628-07:00Wow, I mean WOW!!!!!!

I think it's because they don't want to change.

We have gone from a fast food, junk food family to a healthy food, fit running family. I look forward to the days when we can all run together, without jogging strollers.Robbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12788242660040874176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3499041410735103265.post-72329530582455913232011-10-28T19:04:04.727-06:002011-10-28T19:04:04.727-06:00Wow.. what an amazing story!

Better yet, our 7 yo twin boys now eat amazingly healthy, and we're setting a much better example. Both boys love to run barefoot more than anything! :-) Great job.. and great blog!<br /><br />JeffJeff Galluphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10218695593361254227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3499041410735103265.post-87418901038142489612011-10-27T07:27:10.798-06:002011-10-27T07:27:10.798-06:00Wow congrats on the 100 pound loss.

Did your husband eat what you ate or did he eat all sorts of yummy things? Mine has been good so far except that now he is much more relaxed about it and I am trying to get the last 15 pound off. So tough. I can't wait to get back up to longer distances. My hubby and I are toying with the idea of running the harvest half barefoot next year,or at least in huaraches or vibrams.Robbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12788242660040874176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3499041410735103265.post-83935072916831458572011-10-27T00:13:12.749-06:002011-10-27T00:13:12.749-06:00Wow what an amazing story!! I too have lost over ...Wow what an amazing story!! I too have lost over 100 lbs but I had to do it with a husband who was a bean pole and could eat whatever he wanted and not gain an ounce... I'm maintaining now at around 155 with my goal weight being 145-150. I'm 45, and it sure is a lot harder to keep it off as you age...not only that, you seem to need less calories to maintain as you age, but your brain doesn't want to eat less....I can't eat anywhere NEAR what I could eat 10 years ago, and hope to maintain this weight. You have hit the key with eating every 3 hours, and protein with every meal. And upping your exercise. I can't believe you started running in March then ran the Harvest half in Oct...wow. I ran the Harvest Half last year, but was sidelined with my injuries so I switched to minimalist footwear, and now wear Vibrams for all my running. It has taken me over 8 months to get back up to 15k distances again since switching to minimal shoes. I also run in Pace Gloves by Merrell, but they don't work in winter for me.<br /><br />Keep up the good work, you are an inspiration!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3499041410735103265.post-82711584764043067482011-10-16T16:57:18.762-06:002011-10-16T16:57:18.762-06:00For anyone who is on the same journey, I have to s...For anyone who is on the same journey, I have to say that the number one thing that made it easiest was dieting with my wife. We both admit that we couldn't have done this by ourselves. Leaning on each other when things got hard, made it much easier.Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11186831665942452603noreply@blogger.com
