Okay, so maybe losing 2lbs a day every day is unreasonable. It's just 2 though, so I didn't think it was when I started this journey of mine. But I dropped another pound am at 152 as of 15 minutes ago, so that's fantastic!! So far I have lost 8lbs, and am starting to be able to tell the difference. I'm wearing a shirt that was a little tight on me just a couple weeks ago, and now you can't even see my bellybutton poking through! It's soft and comfy, and I'm so glad I can wear it again. :)
This feels great already, and I'm not even halfway there. I'm starting to notice my endurance building from all the walking. Hopefully someday soon I'll be able to jog an entire lap! That's my goal. By the time I lose all my weight, I'd better be able to do one lap!
Someone walked up to me on campus today after my final and said, "Hey girl, are you losing weight? Your face looks smaller!" It made my heart swell. It's so nice to know that people are noticing! I can't wait to come back off of Christmas break and be even thinner... I can't wait to see the look on people's faces, and I can't wait to hear how proud my parents are. Yesterday I updated my dad on my progress, and he said that it was good. And my Jade told me she was so proud of me, and to just stick with it. The encouragement is definitely helping, and I'm just.... I feel GREAT. If I feel this good now, I can't imagine what it'll feel like when I lose 42 more pounds!
I know this is going to take a while. But hopefully I can build up my metabolism while I'm dieting and exercising and it'll go by a little faster. It was a beautiful day today, and as much as I wanted to walk, I studied all night for my finals last night and I just didn't have the energy. On the other hand, I've been doing other little workouts in between my daily activities, and it's definitely paying off. Hopefully the exercise center here at my apartments will get completely remodeled soon and I will go and try out the brand new shiny elliptical! :)
