i've been fighting myself and my frustration over hitting a wall with my weight loss for the past month. i've done a lot of thinking and realized that i did not get in this to stress about a number, i got into this to be proud of the way i look and to be excited about the way i feel! well my friends, i've reached my goal!! it feels amazing to say that and even more amazing to finally be there!! without further ado, here is me, minus my insecurities, minus my low self-esteem, minus the "i can't do it" mindset, and minus the lack of willpower!!! :)

    i started this journey in mid sept of last year. i was at this weight at the beginning of the month but i was so focused on the number goal i had set (130) that i didn't realize i had already accomplished my ultimate goal--feeling good in my skin! it's an amazing thing!

    I love the thought "minus the baggage" because if you don't love what you see the numbers really don't matter! Congrats!!
