In the 220's!

Dec 27, 2013

I've been feeling kind of discouraged lately, I just didn't feel like I was losing like I should be, and I was worried that I had hit a stall. Well, this morning I stepped on the scale and saw that I am officially in the 220's!! 229.8 to be exact. The last time I weighed this, well, I don't even know exactly when it was, but definitely over 3 years ago. It's kind of crazy. I only spent 18 days in the 230's and now they're gone. Hopefully forver, but like I saw a poster say once, never say "this weight is gone forever!" Because I know i have a disease - chronic obesity. I have a tool now to help me lose weight and control my eating, but to be so naive as to pretend I could never gain this weight back would only be harming myself. So I hope to never see these numbers again. I hope that as I continue down this path of losing weight, that I will healthy habits that will become a part of my regular schedule, and that I will learn to resist temptations, and find healthy outlets for stress. I am loving the way that I feel, I am loving that fact that every week I can fit into "new" clothes (that have been in my closet for years but were always too small). I am loving the way my slimmer body is looking, and the confidence I am gaining because of it. I am planning to start doing the Couch to 5k program, as I would like to start running - something that's always seemed way too difficult and impossible for me, especially when I was almost 300 pounds, but I'm beginning to believe I might be able to do it. Wouldn't that be something!
