I’ve lost a total of 19 pounds in 5 weeks, and a total of 32 pounds since mid April. I wish it were a larger overall total, but I feel very hopeful about my weight, and my overall health at this point, and going forward.
I feel really good, my energy is great and I’m sleeping well. I’m loving having my clothes fit loosely and I am looking forward to buying some more flattering clothes. I can’t wait to surprise my friend in Tacoma when I visit in September; she will take me shopping!
I can actually see an hourglass shape emerging!! And, my face has come out of hiding! I am having a bit of a hard time believing that is my face staring back in the mirror. There is still fat to lose around my middle, but when I see it, I think “this is manageable, I can do this” instead of having the overwhelming sense of impossibility rear its ugly head. I can do this!
I was showing off a couple of days ago, wearing a tank top, and I flexed my biceps. The gals I was talking to exclaimed that I must be lifting weights. I assured them I have not been, these 14” biceps are left over from my power lifting days some 17 years ago. They were having a hard time believing it, but I am used to my arms looking good!
It almost made me want to jump right back into a mass building routine!
