Day 135....

So I’ve checked into this site for 135 days in a row - I have to admit that I am pretty happy about that. Normally, when I get onto some weight loss kick or new fitness routine I can go good for 2 – 3 months and then lose all momentum and get back to where I was before or in most cases even worse. For some reason, I suppose for many reasons – turning 40, new baby, tired of being tired, you people, my own determination, I’ve been able to sustain the momentum and keep striving to reach my goals. Actually, it doesn’t even seem too hard to stay on track this time and I’m not even sure if it’s about momentum. It seems like my mindset has miraculously changed and I’ve morphed into someone that isn’t interested in eating the bad stuff and I get aggravated if I can’t get in a workout. An example, my Dad was coming over for a visit and asked if he should pick up some wings for dinner – I was like, uh no thanks, not even because they’re not a good diet choice, I just didn’t want them. It’s not a chore to get to the gym, it’s just what I do. I’ve heard of people like this, I’ve known a few – I really hope that this is what I’ve turned into.

I know in the big picture it’s only 4 plus months and there’s quite a few more months to go before I even reach my goal but it feels pretty good to have gotten this far. Another thing that I’ve learned over the past few months is to acknowledge my victories big or small and to be proud of what I’ve accomplished – so I am. Go me!

And go you too! :happy:
