Day 43


Oh my goodness! It has been far too long since I have posted! The past couple of days, really this last week has just been a whirlwind. With all of the crazy weather and work I haven't been able to work out in a few days, but I'm planning to get to the gym before work, at least for a little while. Fortunately, even though I haven't worked out much this week my eating has been right on point. When I weighed myself this morning I found that I am now 227 pounds! I've lost 15.4 lbs. and I only have 7 more until I've reached my first goal! I've also lost 5% of my body weight, which is just crazy. I honestly cannot remember the last time that I saw a number on the scale in the 220's and I am so proud of myself. I know that I still have a very long way to go, but it's amazing to be seeing these results. I feel so much stronger, and more confident than I ever have in my life. I feel like I can do anything! My measurements today are 16 inch arms, 48.5 inch hips, 42 inch bust, 34. inch waist, and 30 inch thighs. Since I began tracking my measurements I have lost half an inch in my arms, 3 inches in my hips, once inch on my bust, an inch and a half in my waist, and an inch and a half on my thighs. I have noticed lots of small changes in my body and it just feels so incredible!


I've been looking through some old photos and realizing how different I really do look now. The picture on the left is from my birthday in 2010, and the picture on the right is from last Friday. I guess the difference might not be incredibly significant, but there is a clear difference. I pray that I can continue to stay strong on this journey, and hope that I am able to help inspire other people along the way. Thank you all for your continued support, I love you so much!
