Almost there

Well it has been a little over 4 months since I basically started my life over and I feel amazing. I have lost 60 lbs so for and only need a few more to go til I reach my goal. I also have been 5 months without a drink or a smoke. I feel like a new better person than I was before. I am in the best shape of my life and its only going to get better. I am still training for my first 5k which I am changing and it will prolly be the run to remember. Over all my endurance is great and I don't think the 5k will be a problem. On other notes I am almost done with EMT school and I am still #1 in my class. I sit for my state licensing test in june. Also hopefully I will be going to get my instructor cert in first aid first responder and cpr aed. And if everything goes acording to plans I will be starting paramedic school in august. Besides that I am going to be getting on as a paid on call firefighter for merrionette park once I finish with emt school. Just one more step in a long journey. But I'm on the right track now and when I get done with medic school I will be 2/3 of the way to getting my A.A.S. Degree. Then I will be able to go back to school to study fire science and nursing. Well besides all of that I almost have all my debt paid off and hopefully I will be getting an apartment with my girlfriend around jan of next year. Well I will keep in touch and good luck to everyone else. I hope your progress is going well.
