I have had an interesting week, starting off with on Monday with my year end assessment at the gym. When I sat down with my trainer we looked back to when I began this journey in March. I weighed in at 221.8. I had never felt more defeated, angry, embarrassed, desperate to loose the weight. I even did the hcg diet and never cheated for 43 days.Would I recommend that diet nope not even for money. lol

I will never forget that first assessment 2 minutes on treadmill at 0 incline and 1.2 mph just about killed me planks, push ups, squats windmills left me winded. rofl... I was so embarassed that I didn't go back for a couple of months. I hated low carbing and sugar free, and then gluten free in the beginning. Yet each time I came back and hung in there learning my body and what it would tolerate and what it wouldn't tolerate..

Today I picked up and did walk lunges with 30 pound kettle balls in each hand. I had to ask myself how in God's name did I carry that much weight around each and everyday.I also now do 30 minutes at 9 or 12% incline at 3 mph, before my strength training for an hour. I workout at the gym 5 or 6 days a week along with a couple of challenges I do here and another site so about another 20 to 30 minutes daily.

This past week has been about revelations of where I was and where I am and where I want to be. I have kept one pair of jeans and shirt, undergarments I can't believe I wore then and felt good in them. I have gone from a tight size 20 to a very very loose 14 {to cheap to buy more jeans til Feb 1} . I have never seen the progress from then til now and still don't I still see that very very fat person that I started at. I hope someday I see that new person emerging I remember what she looked like before about 3 years ago. I still don't see her. I do see the woman that survived and is still surviving.

As I write this journel I think that some may think I am bragging on the so called progress instead I am writing this to remind myself when I want to give up and go back to the junk foods that I still crave from time to time where I started and where I never want to began. I have journeled several times I want to have my body back precancer... NO I DON'T.... I was a skinny fat... I had no muscle tone etc..
Instead I want" me" who ever that is and where ever the weight journey ends and the maintaining it begins. I have 105 as my goal weight since that is what I have always weighed in at. Who knows I may stop before... I think we all have something in our closets that we want to wear again even just once. I know I do.. I have a pair of 3/5 jeans that I wore on my first date with my fiancee back in 08 I want them back on just once more then I will know I made it.
So this year of 2015 my goals are really simple I want to make it to goal and then next assessment day with trainer I want to spend time talking about doing defining and running again.I want to continue to learn that each and every person is valuable that we need each other to learn and grow. I want to LIVE with no regrets...
If someone reads this fine if not that is okay this is more for me to say I believe in me and I beat cancer 2x and I will beat this also..To me a new healthy body and soul...

Cheers everyone
