Slow and steady

This morning was great! I woke up (slowly) and got a good workout in (cardio and running, with a little boxing). Loved it!!!! I then had to face the dreaded scale. Well, guess what, it was good to me.....I lost 5 pounds. :-) My total weight loss so far is 70 lbs. I still want to lose about 50 lbs, but I am well on my way to my goal.

Celebrating the small victories is important. I am doing well with my eating and motivated to exercise. That's a victory! My husband keeps me motivated with eating right, working out and not speaking negative. He went off on me the other day because I keep calling myself fat. I really needed that. I am determined now to see myself differently and to stop being a "Negative Nancy".

Hope everyone has a great day. More later......

  1. I think you are AMAZING! How often to you weigh in? I only lost 2 lbs this week. At least it is a loss. I really was hoping for more so I was a lil discouraged but im trying to remind myself that I AM ON THE RIGHT TRACK. Thanks for inspiring me daily!

  2. Oh Jen...thx. It's hard work for sure, but I am committed. This weight has held me back for too long. I weigh myself once a week for actual weigh-ins, but I'm always "checking" the scale. ;-) 2 pounds is great. You are doing such a great job. We are motivating and inspiring each other. Love you girl!
