Another week down in the books. I pound closer to goal. I am only 10 pounds from goal!!! TEN FREAKING POUNDS!!! How in the hell did it happen so quickly? I am in awe! I feel great! I am so very thankful for all of it. I am glad I took the risk and went through with it. It hasn't always been easy but it was never unbearable.
What have I learned in 24 weeks? I have learned more about my body. I have learned to eat intuitively and listen to my body. Am I full? Am I thirsty? Am I hungry? What is my body really craving? I have learned to move more throughout the day since I have a sedentary job. I am able to lift my desk and stand to work so I do that and I use my two 20 minute breaks to go for a brisk walk. I have started making sure we do more active things as a family.
My hair is definitely looking much better. I was really lucky. While I lost quite a bit, it never looked too bad and it did not last that long. So blessed to have had so little in the way of complications.
Now I have to do some mental preparing for the upcoming maintenance phase. Need to read as much as I can and really prepare myself for what is to come. I need to make a plan and stick to it. I know that weighing regularly will definitely be part of my plan. But knowing what to do when I do have a little gain to make sure I tackle it right away. There is no way in hell I am going back to where I was.
Happy Thursday! Hope your week is going well and that you are all living the healthy life! Hugs!
