Healthy Je – Reward time! October 16, 2011

Several months back I wrote about how I changed my lifestyle to become a healthy and fit person.  Well, I’m happy to say that a while ago I reached a healthy weight for my height!  I’m down about 20lbs total and have maintained that for a few months now, and am super happy that I now have a healthy BMI.  Who knew I would enjoy getting fit and being more active?!?  I’ve been a regular at the gym on the treadmill and elliptical machines, have been doing lots of strength training, and until recently have been playing on a kickball team and going on a weekly “extreme” run.  It’s far too cold now for those runs…  We trudge through lakes, creeks, and mud, and I’m a bit of a wuss…

Anyhow, I finally got my butt in gear and rewarded myself for achieving my second main fitness goal (my first was the 5k I did back in August, though I actually achieved this around the same time) – I got a new haircut!  Nothing drastic, I’m trying to keep my hair long for once, but I had had a few subtle layers added in and had my awkward-growing-out-bangs turned into face framing layers.

Please excuse the boob shot that cuts off the top of my head…  I guess that’s what happens when you get your husband to take your picture!  Could be a good thing the top is cut off though – I had just awoken from a nap and had been outside in the rain earlier, so it was looking a little frizzy on top.  ;)
