In high school and college, I did alot of cardio and weights but didn't really take it seriously and just cared about the number on the scale. Then I started to realize what it takes to work hard and have true dedication to achieve a goal. Running a marathon was something I thought I could never do. Now I feel like I'm on to new goals of being in the best shape EVER!! Even as a mom in her 30s! :-)
Why I Love It:
It makes me feel strong, both mentally and physically.
How I Stay Motivated:
Learning from others. The progress that other people have made inspires me to reach my goals. I hope to someday be a role model for other women as well.
BB Accomplishments:
Completed Rock n' Roll Half Marathon in Pheonix and Marathon in San Diego in 2004, Capital City Half Marathon in 2004 and 2005 in Olympia, WA and Seattle Half Marathon in 2005

What mollyd1974 Is Up To:
Jun 20, 2009
mollyd1974changed Weight from 135 lbs. to 136 lbs., a 1 lb. gain in 36 days
I want to be the best I can be for myself and for my family.
Goal (Long):
After having boy/girl twins in January, I realized that it's even more important for me to take care of myself, both inside and out. It's easy to get into a "comfort zone" and not take care of myself with everything else there is to do. But it's important to me to be a strong role model for my children.
Completing a marathon was one goal I never would of thought I would reach and I did it! Now I would LOVE to be able to have a body that could compete in a women's fitness competition in the next 5 years. It seems a long way off but after reading many of the stories on here I believe anything is possible.
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 20 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
18%

Do you tell your friends and/or family about your fitness goals?
Yes
Why or why not?
I do because I think it holds me accountable and I also hope it will motivate them to challenge themselves as well.

What tips would you give to others to help them stay motivated over the long-term?
Don't give up. Don't think "oh, I'm destined to be fat and out of shape". Have a vision for where you want to be and keep striving towards it. It can happen.
I could write a big long blog entry about how I have one week til my Half Marathon and how I have/had some goals for myself... weight/measurements, etc... that now that I spent about a month off track with my eating I won't reach those goals by that deadline. I don't want to write on and on...
doing good! Fell off wagon and into fast food heaven in March & April, back in business now. Can't fall off again with summer coming up, although I'm off to Cali for 6 days next week so good luck to me.
