Shrinking Sonya's Journal, 27 April 2011

Well I didn't lose 2 like I'd hoped for to make it 100 lbs lost... but next week it's mine :). Did Hip Hop Abs with my sis-in-law (for the 5 minutes she did it before she gave up) last night after Biggest Loser. It was the Fat Burning Cardio one, and in the past when I'd tried it I only made it about 5-10 minutes into it. Last night I did the full 30 minute routine without stopping, without losing my breath, and without feeling tired. It just felt fun and got me a little pumped up. That just shows you what a difference it makes when you lose weight- it makes your body more capable of doing tasks that were once grueling. I may not be "in shape" and physically able to do what every normal-sized healthy person can do, but my body is getting smaller and stronger and more capable every day that I work to lose the fat that's holding me back. And yes, sis-in-law gave up almost right away, even thought we were laughing and having fun with it. That would've been an easy chance to give up myself and be lazy, but I chose to keep going even though everyone was sitting watching me (and my brother was criticizing my moves and telling me I wasn't squatting low enough... as he sat on his BEHIND while I did it).

I'm proud of all that I've accomplished, all that I've become, and all that I am going to achieve in the future. I'm not boastful, because I know I couldn't have come this far without the help of God. Whew... sorry that was a long post. I didn't even know I had that much to say! haha. Have a good day, buddies (:

@Kat- yes, doing it despite others is a hard lesson to learn! It bothered me that she gave up so quickly but got me pumped that I was still going strong lol

@pixi- thanks! Yeah, next week I'll be WAY past the 100 mark! How's the job search coming along? I'll have to start doing that in June when we move to Nashville. House hunting's hard enough without adding a job search to the list!
