Making Myself Better
Ask me anything   When the ask box isn't enough   progress blog (ask for password)   About me/ F.A.Q.   My Before & Afters   Other pictures of me   vlogs & videos   Stats & Goals   

I'm Nikki. I love God and my Jeremy and everyone else, too. I'm 5'6". I used to weigh ~170 pounds, then I was 140something for a while. I've also been around 130 and even below that. Now I just want to run faster and look better/fitter in (and out) of my clothes. I'll talk about my weight ups and down and running, but that's not what will make me better. I'm working to love myself better, treat myself better, and be a better Christian and wife. If you want, you can email me at betternikki@gmail.com!

hifitness: 5 pounds of muscle takes up about as much space as 3 tangerines. 5 pounds of fat takes up about as much space as 3 grapefruit. I thought this was a good analogy.  It also makes me want to put on 5 pounds of muscle so I can be leaner at my goal weight. edit: People kept deleting my caption and reposting it as their own, so I stuck it on the actual image. And this one has 1,777. woah.
