Melting away...

As you know I had a trainer like a year ago.  Well I kept the sheet where he wrote down my measurements. It has my measurements for when I first got there and my measurements at the end of my time there. Today, I pulled them out, along with my measuring tape. To my surprise and excitement almost all of my measurements had been reduced by 3 inches! YAY! lol To add to my gratifying day, I lost an additional five pounds. This will make it 15 pounds since I started this blog and started working out seriously. I'm now 1 pound away from my 30 pound mark.

I couldn't be happier!! When I started this journey, my self-esteem felt extra low and I didn't really expect to make a transformation. There have been times where I'm so impatient to see results and I don't. Its made me want to quit. Luckily, with the support of all my friends and family I'm well on my way to finally finishing this goal and losing the weight. The hard work pays off. Although many times it seems like we put on 20, 30, 40, or 50 pounds over night. The reality of the situation is that we didn't. Unfortunately, it always seems like it takes forever to see results. In the passed few days I've begun to see the changes and I can't believe it.

Its fueling me to go above and beyond. I am excited to go to the gym and try my hardest. Tomorrows goal on my running program is 2.5 miles. I'm nervous and ecstatic all at once. lol. I have never jogged 2.5 miles so when I complete it, it will definitely be a new mile stone for me. As I take this journey a day at a time I realize that every day is one step closer to my ultimate goal. Happy Workouts to ALL!!
