Its been 1 month since I've started this journey and so far I have lost 13 lbs and 3 inches. I beat my orignal goal of 10lbs lost by Feb 8th.. however the competitive side in me really wanted 15 lbs lost :(

I am very pleased with how far I've come in this short period of time. Although I admit it seems like I have been doing this forever!! I have seen so much change with my body in 30 days, I can stay on the elliptical for up to an hour compared to when I first started I was dying after 10 minutes!! I can complete the full Cardio dvd for P90x.. I exercise everyday and have taught myself to be very disciplined with my calories. I am very happy :)

Thank you everyone for the support !!

  • Good job! I understand the competitive side thing. Use that to get to your next goal. And don't downplay your success. You are doing awesome!

    That is so great!! It's amazing what you can do when you put your mind to it. I too had a goal of 10 pounds the first month and lost 13. I have become an exercising and calorie counting junkie! Lol Good luck I know you will do awesome!!!
  • Keep up the good work Sarah! I'm so proud of you! It's nice to have a friend/fellow mom going through the same thing I am. I also love the support I'm getting from you & fellow MFP's. Let's continue this journey together & reach our goal by June 1st "to be fit & healthy mama's & be a good example to our children". Cheers to us! :drinker:
