Ok...so my official weigh in day is Sunday but I couldn't wait. I'll update again tomorrow if it's different. I got on the scale yesterday morning and I have reached my first little goal!!! It's about 13 days late but that's just fine! :D I'm at -30 lbs.!!!!! Holy crap! That's amazing! I have never been so excited about something in my entire life! I immediately ran around the office and told everyone. Then I ran to my phone. There was one person I had to share this exciting news with. The person that helped me get this whole process started. He was just as excited as I was!! I expected nothing less. :D Then he asked if I had cried yet. At that moment the tears started forming in my eyes. They were tears of pure joy of course. It's like in that moment I realized that this is really possible. I can really do this. Those aren't just words...they are truth. :D I know I keep saying this but I'm gonna say it again. I never thought this was possible. I really never believed that I could do this. I know I said I could. I told myself over and over again that this time would be different. I just never fully believed that it would be. I've tried this a million times. I've never stuck with it before. Until now. :D This time has most definitely been different!! I am a success. Gosh...I love thinking about it. I love wondering what I will look like when I've lost 80 lbs. It's such an exciting thing. It makes me smile every time I think about it. Some of the people around me are realizing that they can do this too. They want to start eating healthy and exercise. They are seeing me succeed and thinking that they can do it as well. That's amazing! Of course you can do it! :D Everyone keeps asking, "What are you doing to lose the weight?". They really hate it when I say, "Diet and exercise. It really does work." I'm SO serious when I say that. I'm not on any medicine. I haven't had any surgery. My weight loss comes straight from changing my calorie intake and exercising more. Period. That's all. There isn't some magic pill I've found or some spectacular surgery that I've stumbled across. It's just me trying to eat healthier...be healthier. I love saying that. It makes me so proud to know that I can do this on my own. Well...I don't mean completely on my own. I did have a trainer for a little while. You know...I think everyone needs someone that can push them beyond their limits those first couple of weeks. I don't think I would've stuck with it if I hadn't had David to push me. He held me accountable without knowing it. I felt like I had to eat right because if I didn't then I was wasting his time. It made me be good. I know that sounds crazy but it worked for me. I knew he was taking time out of his day to help me workout and if I didn't eat right then the workout wasn't doing much good. So...find someone that can help you. See if a friend is willing to hold you accountable. I love it when people tell me I shouldn't be eating something!! Seriously. I need that in my life. I need those people that will tell me NO! :D It doesn't offend me at all. It shows me that they care! Weight loss is possible. No...it's not always easy but it does get easier. You learn to love other things. It's not terrible. You're not going to die if you get fruit instead of fries. I say that because I really thought I would die if I started replacing things with fruit or other healthier choices. Really?! Who wants fruit?! I do! I want fruit! I want to be healthy! I want to make the right decisions when we're out at a restaurant. It is difficult at times...I'm not gonna lie...but it's SO worth it. There are always healthy options. You just have to really look to find them sometimes. :D Weight loss is most definitely possible! Just try it and see!!!!
Well...I think that's all for now! Hopefully I'll get to update tomorrow with more spectaclar news!
I've lost 30 lbs.!!! Whoooo hooooooooooooooo!!!!!!
