Fabulous Friday!

 

The day started off with me having to make a choice. I would either get discouraged that the scale didn’t go down at all this week (like I would have in the past) or recognize the other changes in my body that are occurring and keep moving forward. I chose the latter.

   I got dressed, grabbed a bite, watched some wedding coverage, and then pushed play. For some reason I struggled. I wasn’t doing anything new, but I just struggled. I felt tired and discouraged. At once point I said “forget it” and turned it off. I sat in the recliner for two seconds before I stood back up and said “No” (and yes, all of this conversing was out loud- in an empty room lol) “I can do this! I have done this! I’m going to do this!” I started the DVD back up, cued up where I left off and brought it hard. I left it all on the floor.

But, I finished!

Here is a very sweaty, but very proud me. In the past I have given up to easily. I refused to give up today! I refuse to give up this time! It was hard to keep going, but by golly, I felt so proud, and so just WOW afterwards. It is so worth it.

After my shower, I was getting dressed and decided to try on a pair of capris that I had picked up at a garage sale several weeks back. I couldn’t wear them when I bought them. (I didn’t know it at the time, thought they would fit, got them  home and they were way to small)

The last time I tried them on was two weeks ago, I could get them on, but had to lay down to button and zip them….oh and hold my breath if I wanted to keep them on. Bracing myself, I pulled them from the closet, slipped them up my legs, buttoned and zipped…without even sucking in! WHAT?! Oh yeah, that’s right! The scale might say the same thing it did last week, but baby this fat is melting!

I hope your Friday is as fabulous as mine. Have a wonderful weekend!
