Go Becky Go

I'm Becky, 23 year old Florida native living in Colorado. Marathon runner trying to get back into running, I also do capoeira on occasion and like to go on adventures sometimes. I'm a certified EMT (but still trying to get a job as one). I like to lift, and am currently working on "getting back on the wagon" for weight loss. I originally started this blog and lost 25 pounds and kept it off for a long time, then life happened and I'm up higher than my original starting weight.. I am pretty ambitious and am signed up for some races this year to boost my motivation, including a half that goes up a 14er, and a 50k in the mountains.

This is not a weight loss blog, it's my blog and I talk about whatever I want including weight loss and food and boys and running and drinking and lots of pictures of myself. I have little to no filter when it comes to the things I say, I am kinda opinionated, so sometimes I'm awkward, but I'm pretty awesome.

Height: 5'1"
HW: 174 lbs
LW: 142 lbs (Sept/2011)
CW: 172.4 lbs (3/11/13)
Goal: to run fast and be healthy.

I love talking to new people, so if you have any questions just ask!

Smile Friday: Is this really me?!

Don’t let the smile fool you, though. I know CF will re-humble me this afternoon, and I think I have food...

I went to see Bruins @ Rangers in game 4 of their conference semi.

What a great game! Two soft goals allowed the Rangers to get back in the game...

Who I Follow

Weigh in Friday

Today I weighed in. And I also took measurements because I haven’t taken any since I was at my lowest weight (read: last September). I was comparing numbers between then and now.. I’m definitely bigger. I gained 3 inches in my chest alone (no wonder my boobs have been looking bigger). I gained inches in pretty much everything. Except somehow I have 2 inches less in hips. Odd, but I’ll take it. I won’t even show you the comparison of the measurements because it’s too sad.

Week #68

Official SW: 168 lbs

No excuses challenge SW/Last weigh in (Jan. 30th): 149.2 lbs

CW: 147.4 lbs

-1.8 lbs since last weigh in

-20.6 lbs since official starting weight

I’ll take what I can get. Every day I get a little better, regardless of what the scale says.

Measurements 2/10/12:

Bust: 39.75”

Shoulders: 41”

Hips: 37.75”

Waist:31.25”

Thighs: 23.5”/24” (R/L)

Biceps: 11.5”/11.75” (R/L)

Forearms: 9.5”

Calves: 14.75”

Neck: 12.75”

I’ve been avoiding these measurements for a reason. Hopefully I’ll see some progress though!
