Today is the day before my birthday! My short term goal was to reach 285 lbs by April 6th. Currently I have just weighed in praying that I reached that goal and when I looked down at all my hard efforts I was thrilled to find out that not only did I make my short term goal I lost more than planned. YAYYYYYY! I lost an extra 4 lbs past my short term goal! I am so happy. I am skipping my birthday this year since tomorrow I start moving my things because this was the only weekend we could move our things out. Let me tell you these new stairs of death at the new place are going to whip my ass in to shape quickly. I swear I see heaven at the top of this staircase and looking down is a skinnier happier healthier version of myself looking back at me. I can not wait to reach my long term goal. I am so proud of myself from how far I have come. But that is not enough! I want to be the best me I can be and I still see improvements I would like to make. But it is all about the self love and taking the time to tell yourself that you are doing a good job. Reward yourself. Rewards do not need to be food. That was a hard one for me to learn but a reward could be a pair of skinny pants, new makeup, updated drivers license photo with a skinnier you. I have given all these things to myself each time I reach a short term goal I have a prize chart and not a single thing on there is food. I am focusing on rewards that I do not need to consume. I hope everyone has an amazing weekend. And I am so happy to be part of this group. Thank you to everyone I have met. I know I wont have time to be on here this weekend but I will make sure to weigh in on monday!
