I've started fasting because one of my goals for this year is to make it to about 145 lbs. I have a way to go but find inspiration in my cousin who continues to run the marathon and runs everyday. Running wouldn't be my thing anymore (bad knees) but Kansas has pretty good looking weather right now. I might ask her if I can join her sometime even though my head tells me not to. The thing is I don't want to walk alone in the neighborhood I live in, but I'm definitely over motivated to do something about my weight this year. I lost about 20 lbs last year and feel like I can make it through to my goal this year if I fast (I'm not really a diet-er. I can go through a day with only two meals and one snack).

I love the feeling I get after I exercise. Feeling my heart being that strong and the rush of endorphins and feel goods.
