Weight Loss Journey (so far)
Monday, March 23rd, 2009This has been a trying journey lol and I still have more ways to go before I reach my ultimate goal. Which is okay with me. My weight have been fluctuating up and down. Which is due to many reasons like "that time of the month", not having the proper foods to eat, stress, feeling crappy, etc.
When I FIRST started to work out in June of 2008 I was at my heaviest. I weighed a dreaded 213 lbs!!!!!! Yeah! Really! A lot of people that see me everyday couldn’t believe it. Maybe thats because I looked different with clothes on than with them off lol. Clothing CAN cover up stubborn and embarrassing fat. So, when I started to work out, of course I was losing weight. But I didn’t keep it up like I should have, due to some complications with getting back and forth to the gym everyday. But luckily I got down to 205 lbs. Thats awesome right? lol. Total loss of 8 lbs. I’ve been able to maintain that weight too. The scale gave me many different readings during that time (202 lbs, 203 lbs, 205 lbs). So yeah, basically, I fell off. But I didn’t completely give up.
In Dec ‘08. I got back to working out on a regular basis. Then from there…… the magic happens … lol. When I got back to working out again. I didn’t have my diet all the way correct. But with the help of a dearest friend of mine, my diet has dramatically improved. Of course it’s been a few changes here and there, but I was learning and adapting. Also with some help, I got my workout regimen down packed. As the weeks go by I change it up a bit to challenge myself. Speaking of challenges, I also entered in the Hydroxycut Max! Contest.
I think I’m doing good so far. I managed to lose over 20lbs since going back in Dec. But OVERALL since June ‘08 until now, I’ve lost a total of 38 lbs (Thank you LORD!)! And I’m not finished yet! I’m going to keep on going until I reach my goal of Ultimate goal of 140. I’m enjoying this journey so far. Waiting to see how far I get by the end of this year. Sooo, I’ll keep yall updated. Peace!
