Let's Re-group...

So the new year is about to begin and I have been thinking A LOT about new years resolutions. Many times in the past I have made resolutions to hit the gym more and shape up, yet it has never happened (well, it might have for a month or so only to be forgotten by early spring). This year will be different and I am determined. This is the year I will have the body I want. I need to stop wasting time and get it done THIS YEAR. If not this year, then when?? (NEVER?)

So far it has been 5 months since I started my new lifestyle. In early July I weighed a whopping 169 lbs. Today, in mid December I weigh 143 lbs. That's a total of 26 lbs lost. Although I am very happy with my progress I am still un-happy with the way I look, especially with my clothes off. It's one thing to look good in clothes but another to look good naked. I want to love my body naked. I want to love my body in a bikini. I want to love my body in anything/without anything! I want to be as confident and as sexy as I can for not only for myself but for Steve as well.

Originally my goal was to get down to 135 lbs. Currently I am 7-8 lbs away from this. Having a finish line of a goal in sight is a great feeling. BUT I have realized that even if (no not if, WHEN) I reach my goal of 135 I will not look like I want to. And that is okay... because I will set new goals and keep going. It's not just about reaching a number it is about reaching happiness and confidence.

Anyways, so I know I haven't been writing on here a lost in the past month or so. It's mainly because I made this as a tool to help myself and I haven't needed it because I have been doing so well on my own. BUT recently I have felt I could use some more motivation and some help, and hey it happens. 5 strong months is great but I'm not about to throw it all away for the holiday season. Where I really started to get off track was finals week, and then I got sick, and now that I am better it is time to STEP IT UP. Because of all that's been happening I've started to get a little lazy (especially with my diet) and have been maintaining my weight for a couple weeks instead of losing more. This brings me back to new years resolutions... I've been thinking okay so your getting of track a little... well the new year is coming and you can start fresh then. Then I thought why wait 2 weeks? Why not start today, right now, with being as strict as you were before? So today it is. Right now... ready, set, GO!
