Hello and Happy Wednesday. I am doing pretty good as far as keeping on track.
I am on days off, but still have gotten a walk in and plan on another this evening when it cools off a bit.
I have done the challenges and am getting out the exercise ball for some abdominals which are most dreaded of all exercises. I hate crunches etc. because I know they do not work for me,
but I am still doing them, in hopes that someday my gut will miraculously get smaller...(I will not be holding my breath for that however)
I did have a soda today or a few drinks of one. I couldn't finish it. It is amazing that when you go without something for awhile you begin to get a distaste for it. I am happy to say I will be sticking to my sugarless tea and bottled water.
I was complimented at work yesterday, which made me smile and I thought I would share with you. A couple I hadn't seen in a while came into the store and started asking for a girl who used to work there in December, and when they described her and said my name I was like!!! Hey wait a minute, that is me!. the lady said I was so nice to them when they came through before that the wanted to stop in and say hello. BUT... they were surprised, because I had lost so much weight from when they had seen me, they didnt recognize me. I started thinking back to when I started my job there in the fall, and I have realized I am down from a size 28 pants to a size 20 and they are lose on me. My boss even told me she has seen a difference and that really made me think that even though it is struggle and I feel like nothing is happening there really are visible changes. Even if we are blind to our own successes, other people can see the change and sometimes we need to slow down and see what we have achieved.
