Woke up this morning feeling sick to my stomach; I haven’t felt that bad since I was pregnant. My anxiety level was over the top. Why? Because of an appointment AND because I was supposed to weigh in. I got so used to not weighing in…no worries or cares or STRESS haha. Absolute silliness. When I got to work, I ran to the bathroom, went back to my office and kicked off my shoes, and said a quick prayer. I blew out all the air in my lungs, closed my eyes and stepped on the scale. Looked down at the horrible scale and saw that I lost 4 more pounds!! WOO HOO! So so exciting! I have been so consistent lately and desperately fighting off my binging urges.
Someone asked how much weight I lost today. I’m never really sure how to answer so here’s the breakdown:
· Since my heaviest weight I’ve lost 119 lbs.
· Since I’ve been training 101 lbs.
· Since the beginning of the year 23 lbs.
· Since I started my running plan 18.5 lbs.
Weight loss doesn’t always say it all…I’m down 14 sizes and the clothes I am in now are getting baggy. I should be able to get into the next size down soon! At some point I’ll have to post some pictures of some clothes I had when I was heavier next to the clothes I fit into now. I even saved a pair of underwear, which can be used as a parachute if I was to sew up the holes for my legs haha. Also, I need to post the total number of inches lost. I haven’t measured myself in a long time.
I’m pretty excited about this; from my eating to my running and my workouts I’m seeing all kinds of progress. I don’t remember ever feeling this good about my fitness journey since I started. I pray every day for strength and that I will do just as well as the day before.
I’ve been doing great for almost 6 weeks now. I usually fail within the 4th week so I’m on a roll. We start our group nutrition challenge on Monday so I’m sure that will keep going strong for a while longer. The timing to start that couldn’t have been better for me!
