at the beginning of the year, i made a resolution that many people make: to lose weight.
it is april and i'm still keeping my end of the deal. i have been steadily losing weight. slowly but surely, it's been coming off. it has not been easy, but it has been worth it. i am sick of being chubby for SO MANY reasons. reasons ranging from my health to being able to wear clothes that make me feel good.
to date, i've lost 22.5 pounds since the start of the new year. 4.3 pounds on my own ... and 18.2 pounds with weight watchers. if i do well this week, i will hit my first percentage goal next week. i've already loss 10% total, but i want to reach that goal at weight watchers! i am feeling confident that i'll be able to lose 30 pounds by the time i turn 30. dude, what a feeling that is! i'm still on the healthy train, which runs through july. even if i don't win, i will be so glad to have participated. the biggest blogging loser is over and i didn't win the big money ... but i 'met' a lot of people who have the same goals as i do. their support has really helped me these past couple months.
kickboxing starts tomorrow night. also, mother nature decided to stop playing cruel jokes on us and decided to give us some spring like weather. i'm totally pumped to get out walking in the evenings with my boys.
hopefully soon i'll share some before/after shots. :)
sharing this journey has been one of the best decisions i have ever made. thank you so much for your support! i will be the first to admit, i'm DAMN proud of what i have accomplished so far!
That's amazing! Congratulations on your loss! (That reads funny, but you know what I mean :)

Thats awesome, WTG Jenny!!! Me on the other hand, have gained the 30lbs back that I lost a few years ago. I am always hungry and I can't seem to make any good food choices. At least you are!
