Celebrating my own lil' victory

In January, I decided that it was most definitely time to buckle down and change my life, for the better. It was time to get in to shape and get healthier, so that's what I did. I started eating better and started working out, A LOT. I go to an hour Zumba class 4 times a week, and every other week, I have just started a full body strength & toning class.

As part of my Zumba class, we have a weight loss challenge that I'm taking part in. Last night was absolutely an amazing night for me...I lost 4.4 pounds in the last week, which makes my weight loss since January 1st, 25 pounds! Only .4 pounds to go until I reach my next goal (then on to the next). I truly want to lose another 100 pounds, but setting these small-step goals seems to be the way to go for me! I'm so proud of myself!!!!

    You are doing awesome!! I, too started in January, with a weight loss total at 18.2... I know I could have done a lot better. I got side-tracked and was eating out too much w/my husband. But this week I;m getting back on. I have 33 days till I go on Vacation in Vegas. I would like to lose another 10lbs by then, but it's up to me.
    You are doing great!!! Keep it up :)
