Three months in and STILL going!

So, here I am - three months in!  I've lost 21.8lbs since January 1st.  This weight loss is not as quick as I'd like, but it's livable.... which is different for me.

I cannot wait to be in my own home again so I can start lifting heavy weights.  I have realized that I NEED to do what I like or I just won't do it.

The 21-day fix meal plan is so unbelievably sustainable!  It's soooooooo easy.  And for the first time in a LONG time, I feel like I'm actually eating a balanced diet.  I'm just moving forward.  

My goal for the next two weeks is to break 190.  I've gotta do it!!!!

I'm getting stronger, harder and more physically fit.  My stamina is better.  My size 12 jeans fit comfortably.  There are so many positives to report!

I just need to keep working!!!

Another re-start?

Okay... I'm starting over!

Just read through my previous blogs from last year.  I am going to stay really positive here.... I didn't succeed in my goals last year but........ I realized by reading through everything just how much stress I was under.  I got really sick last year - throwing up sick nearly once a week for two months.  At the time, the doctor couldn't figure out what was wrong with me, but looking back, I completely know - it was STRESS!  No wonder I couldn't make the diet work or see any bodily changes.  No wonder I got disheartened and gave up.  AND, it was a good learning lesson for me.  I had to learn to love my body just the way it was.... and I did.  I concentrated on the good parts (big boobs) and temporarily ignored the bad parts (big love handles).  Until my knees started to hurt and I realized that I was really doing my body a disservice.  So, here I am again.  Newly and freshly rejuvenated.  I feel healthy, I have stamina, I am sleeping well, and I have support.  BAM!

My starting weight - January 1 - 213.8!  Wowza!  Haven't weight this much since I had my babies (and I mean just after!!!)

Todays weight - 199.0!  Saweeettttt - I've lost 14.8 in just 27 days!

And I might as well add some before pics....
