I got an early birthday present from my scale today…I lost 2.5 pounds! Can I get a whoop, whoop? After months of sitting at or above the same number, I’m ecstatic to finally see my weight head South. Even my breakfast this morning was happy for me.

I was looking through some pictures tonight from a few months ago, and compared it to a photo JD took of me this morning (I’m going to start photo documenting my weight loss each week.) I can’t believe the difference!

Me in May

Me today!

I’m amazed…I haven’t even lost that much weight, but my body is definitely different! I think all those sweaty workouts are paying off.

My goal for this next week is to lose 1.5 pounds. Two of course would be better, since that’s what I’d ideally like to lose every week, but 1.5 would put me in a whole new weight range. I’m so close! Makes me think of the Aerosmith song, “Take Me to the Other Side.” Ha Ha!

Is anyone else celebrating weight loss this week? What’s your new goal (s) for next week?
