Operation Black Skirt

Ok. Here we go again. After an amazingly fun summer where I've found the love of my life, and my dream job; my nutrition and fitness took a bit of a back seat.

Don't get me wrong though, I didn't lose complete focus. I ran personal bests in both the 10k and half marathon distances this fall.

Call it a runners high - but now I'm gearing up to run my first full marathon in the spring of 2012.

If you have read my blogs in the past then you know that I digress....

OPERATION BLACK SKIRT

So in the summer of 2010 I bought the lowest size I have purchased as an adult. A black pencil skirt in a size SEVEN!! Shortly after I moved into my new home and that black skirt with the golden size tag went missing. A year later I'm cleaning out my closet (no pun intended) and low and behold there she is. I decided then that this will be my new focus. I will still weigh in each week and still discuss healthier choices and interesting workouts but my focus is that black skirt. I tried it on today and took a picture. It wasn't pretty.

I will keep that photo locked away until I can show you one hell of a before and after photo!!!

TOOLS FOR SUCCESS

I will be using FREE iPhone apps to manage my exercise and nutrition. There are many to choose from but I have decided to go with MyFitnessPal and miCoach apps.

Starting weight: 165lbs

Can't wait to once again have this journey with incredible support from all of you!
