Hi guys! so I had so much going on so I didn't get the chance to post about my ONE year "FIT-VERSARY"
I am really happy and proud of where I am at, and eventhough I didn't hit 117.8 which was my goal. I fluctuate between 125-132 right now. and I feel good. =D I'm even thinking of not even trying to hit 117.8 lol. I only want to hit that goal to say I lost 100 lbs. lol.
I started my journey September 25th, 2012 and for the past year, I went from a heavy smoker party girl to a fit zumba instructor! I still can't believe how time flies and still remember when I first started. It was the heaviest I've ever been and I felt so depressed... I was 217.8, 5 foot 3 and felt so unhealthy....
That night of September 25th, I thought about what I ate that day and put it on myFitnessPal (i've had the app but never used it).... I thought I ate healthy... one of my meals was a salad.... when I input it... a whooping 1100 calories for that salad. seriously???? wow! my total for the day was almost 4000 calories.... that's when it clicked... If me and my husband wanted to have kids, I didn't want to be heavy so my goal was to lose 30 lbs... from then on I started to slowly eat less and healthier.... and walked... in november I did the jillian michaels 30 day shred--- did 2 rounds with my bestfriend who by the way went from 149 to 122, and we also did some walking in between.... By the time my Birthday came... in January, I was down about 50 lbs already.... Then in February I fell in love with Zumba! I did it 4-5 times a week for one hour.... and in june I started doing it twice a day when I was going to get my certification... It's the only workout I actually hated missing.... heck I don't even like it when I miss one minute lol.
Now my life has completely changed.... It's amazing.... eventhough I lost some friends on the way, I am happy where I'm at! I'm surrounded with people who are like minded and won't let me fail...
EVen my husband lost weight! =D he's down 35 lbs.
I hope this post inspires someone! I have instagram where I post my foods etc. @instajayay Follow me! =D
