great accomplishments with family...

it's taken me a while to post this, but last Saturday my mom, 2 sisters Carol & Kim & myself all joined up with our Weight Watchers group to complete a 5k.  It was cold {can we say mid-40s?}, rainy & windy... yeh, not the best conditions for a 5k, but we persevered & got our butts out there anyway!  That, was accomplishment #1!  Carol & I have been going to WW since last June & have lost lots of poundage & have been working out for alot longer... my Mom has been going since the end of the year & has made HUGE strides & Kim has been going with us for a few months now & she has also done great!  I'm so proud of my mom, who has had knee replacement & has pushed her way through the training for the 5k.  She was mentioning just Saturday how she only had to stop once to stretch a little, compared to 2-3 times just a month before when we took a long walk.  It's amazing what losing weight & moving your body can do for you!  I'm also really proud of my sister Kim, who like us all, has struggled with weight her whole life & has been so awesome through starting on the program & training for the 5k... I'm sure she {as all of us have} NEVER thought she could walk 3.1 miles & not die!  I've loved watching both of them get excited, not just about the weight loss, but actually excited to see how much farther they could walk each day.  I love this picture of Kim & mom coming to the finish!  I swear I was so proud to see them coming & the looks on their faces... even smiling at the end!  LOVE YOU guys SO MUCH!  I'm so happy we can accomplish these things together!

It's so amazing to see what we can accomplish when we just try.  Seriously... you really don't know what you are capable of until you try!  I can't wait to see what's next for us!  love you all <3
