I woke up this past Saturday morning, and decided to get on
the scale. I quickly did some math and to my surprise, I lost my first 20 lbs.!! Four long months into my weight loss journey,
and I finally met my first mini weight loss goal. It took mental & physical & emotional preparation, determination,
perseverance, faith, and working my ass off.
There were some tears, self-doubt, and most of the time I had to just
suck it up and get to it.
I want to thank my cousin for helping me, even though she is
on a weight loss journey herself, my sister/friend, for always noticing/complementing/cheering
me on, my coworkers, for kind words, and support. Most of all, I want to thank my amazing spouse,
who gets dress and goes to the gym with me, no matter the time of day or how
short of a notice I give. I am grateful
for your constant love and support.
Now to continue on my quest, to meet my next mini weight
loss goal. Hopefully, now that I have found what foods and exercises work best for me, it won't take as long :)
