I was worried after having drank a little too much this past weekend and taking Sunday off to recharge batteries that this week was going to be a slow one. Monday came and I was so busy at work that by the time I was free to workout it was very late so I just did some light cardio at home before calling it a night. Tuesday was just as busy and I had to miss my training session at the gym that day since I had a last minute meeting to attend, so again that put a kink in my plans. Now, I usually weigh in on Tuesday mornings but seeing that the past few days had not been exactly the best I knew I’d probably wouldn’t see much if any progress at all so even though I did weigh myself that morning I decided not to “trust” that weight (even though it showed a 2lb loss) as I felt that my body was still working out the extra food and drinks I had consumed that previous weekend. Weighed myself again today (Friday) after a staying on track for the rest of the week and I couldn’t have been more excited after seeing the results.
Weight update:
- 11/14/2017 – 320 lbs
- 11/21/2017 – 318 lbs
- 11/28/2017 – 310 lbs
- 12/5/2017 – 305 lbs
12/12/2017 – 303 lbs- 12/15/2017 – 299 lbs
4.5 weeks total: -21 pounds
I am so excited to see that number. Am I officially out of the 300s? Hell yeah! At least I hope so as I won’t weigh myself until next week before leaving for Puerto Rico. I haven’t been under 300 lbs in over a year. This was the first milestone I wanted to achieve on this journey and I know I have a long way to go and it’s not always going to be like this but all my hard work is starting to pay off and it feels oh so good. It’s also taught me that I can still go out and have fun and it’s not going to be the end of the world as long as you continue to work hard. After all, it does not matter how slow you go or how many times you stumble, as long as you don’t give up you will always reach your goal.
PS – I know I have to take some pictures to show some physical changes as well. I promise I will get to them soon.
Thanks for the support!
