Good morning everyone! Sundays are usually everyone's rest day around here, quiet 
.
We had my husbands company picnic yesterday and it has shown me that the loss I have sustained is great. Our kids literally ran nonstop for 3 hours lol. By the end of the picnic we both just sat in the car for a bit to be still before driving home. I was tired but yet not winded. I was happy, truly happy. Like I didn't have a care in the world as I played and danced with them and other wild kids. I am still fat but that didn't stop me. I wasn't thinking about what others thought of the fat chick on the dance floor being goofy w her kids.
So my thought of the day is a good one. What has brought u joy on your journey so far?
1. Being able to laugh and smile while not caring what ppl might say or think. That's the me I have missed.
2. Selfish one! I like hearing others say I look nice or pretty. Or dare I say, get flirted with. Everyone has fat days or ugly days or no clothing fits right days but the good days are coming around more often.
Oh and my kids are atill asleep lol. I've been up for hours bc my internal alarm goes off and these stinkers are sleeping in. Ahh the life of 17 month olds.

My main joy is being free of constant cravings but also yes seeing scales moving in a general downward trend is a pleasant novalty still, feeling a bit better in my shirts were the strain on buttons is lessening although i am not impressed that as usual my body always disposes of what little cleavage i have before it even considers other possible areas of fat to burn THIGHS !!!! BELLY!!!!! but no it wants to make sure my chest is totally flat before going to any other bits. My skin is clearer and have had compliments on that and been told I look younger. My water retention is all gone though now my favourite shoes are loose. It just feels good to be making some progress in right direction.0

I appreciate being able to wake up and go through the day without feeling like a fat slob. Thats the best way I can describe it. I'm not much thinner but I feel much happier with myself. I am happy that I have stopped secret eating. I am happy that working out makes me happy, that when I don't have the chance to I become anxious.0
