I stepped on the scale this morning and to my joy, discovered that watching my calorie consumption and making it to the gym is paying off. I weighed 187 lbs in November. Today, I weigh 171.5 lbs (on my psycho bathroom scale)!!! Next week, I will be out of the 170s and it feels great.
The saying is true - nothing tastes as good as losing weight feels. My "fat jeans" which I almost outgrew were baggy when I put them on this morning. My goal is to fit into 2 of my old suits and a cute pair of boots in my closet by 1 Feb: I will my gray suit to work on Monday and on Tuesday, I will wear my boots with my beige skirt.
This is a tough journey. It's hard to believe that I have allowed myself to get this big; it makes me sick that my body shows the world I have no self-control. I am fighting back. I will never look like this again. I will never treat myself with such disregard that I eat anything and everything. I will respect myself and so no to what is unhealthy. I will love myself enough to exercise 5 times a week.

I was afraid to step on the scale yesterday, but I know the key for me is to keep doing it. I was at the point where I was terrified to hop on the scale because I knew I was overweight - I just kept gaining and gaining until a couple of months ago I stepped on the scale to realize I weighed more than my husband! I know people say it isn't healthy to weigh yourself everyday, but this is something I need to do for now to keep myself from getting out of control. It also motivates me to make the most out of every workout.

I made it to the gym last night thanks to the encouragement of Malea and Jason. My legs were killing me and I just wanted to go home after work, but I went to the gym and jogged until I couldn't (which wasn't very far) and then I walked for 40 minutes.

My mom has joined me on fat secret and I am so thankful to have another accountability partner!
