Success is in the eye of the beholder

I was very hesitant in posting in this section since I'm not at my official goal weight. However I got to thinking why does getting to a certain goal number make you a success. My weight loss journey is very complex for me as it is tied to so much more than just weight.

I started in the low 300's -somewhere between 315-320 as I was too embarrassed to look at the scale when I started to now I'm in the mid 200's--260 as of yesterday's weight in.To the hope of find a love interest here has been dashed since I put my self out there I am not ashamed anymore of where I started and that I'm proud of my loss .My ticker may say 45 but I know it's more.. I am stronger,faster,and more able to do thing that I would never think I would do. I thought I was a prissy type but I have noticed when I'm in the gym I'm like a little beast. I have gotten to a point where I now am really focused on developing myself and growing. I laughed last night as it's getting to be warm in Texas that now I need to become a sugar baby since I don't have any spring and summer clothes anymore. I joked with myself and thought as I packed my spring and summer clothes away in Sept, man it would be funny if I couldn't wear any of these. Well the joke is on me because all are way too big.

I will leave with this. As we are all on different paths remember the simple success. That could be not drinking,not hitting the drive through,going to the gym after a *****y day at work, or simple taking care of yourself. All are successes in my book because it's when we put them all together we get the major success. I have to focus on my journey and not fret when I see people losing 100plus lbs in a short time frame. We are all on different tracks so rock your track out and motivate as you go. I hope to come back by the end of the year with even more success. You can look at my pics to see my transformation.
