Another month passes by and all is good.
August was a tough month for me. I gained 4 pounds in 3 weeks. Between catching a chest cold, Kelly's Sweet 16, Florida and the kids starting school again, I gained 4 pounds in about 3 weeks. I was still trying to exercise but with so much delicious food around me, it was not good. I was also finding it difficult to breath properly during my runs with my cold. BUT - I'm back in the swing of things. This Sundays weigh in showed a 3.4 lb loss. I'm very happy about that. I spend all last week focusing on my food intake and went for my run 4 times. I know I am in total control on my weight and it is not in control of me. I felt really good at Paty's baby shower because many people acknowledged my change in appearance. It feels amazing when people say, "You look like a different person!" I tell them that I am different. I am completely different. :)
I'm looking forward to the holidays like never before. If i can keep up my routine and lose 1 - 2 pounds a week I should be fitting into a size 12 by Christmas. A SIZE 12 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But don't worry, I will in no way be disappointed if I'm not there by Christmas, I just like having something to shoot for.
Slow and Steady, slow and steady .
