Well, my friends, it is almost time for my challenge to be over.So here are my confessions and things I am proud of……I did pretty good to be honest with you:
What I did right – Got my water, dairy, exercise in on designated days the whole time.I have not had one single Diet Coke.So that is 41 days with no Diet Coke.And stayed away from the home scale.These are things that I am for sure proud of.
What I did not do so hot on - Desserts one time a week??Has not happened in the last week because of the opening of the Golden Spoon that I have already discussed with you all.lol. Have not been so hot on the vitamin during the last few days either.
But what have I accomplished??Well, in 41 days, I have lost a total of 7.8 pounds.For me, that is huge.Well, for anyone that is huge.That is an average of about a pound a week.I could not ask for anything more.I had a couple of gains but they were not bad and I always got rid of the gain and then some.So I have to say that overall I am very happy with the progress that I have made so far.I am leaving for my trip on Thursday night after work.I will be going home, working out, showering and getting on the road by, hopefully, 7.That should put me in town by 11 or 12.If I can, I am going to leave earlier.But that will remain to be seen on Thursday.
For now, I am just going to go ahead and celebrate what I was able to do and to start to think about what I want to do next.
What was the most valuable lesson that I got out of this?That I CAN do this.I AM worth it.I love to run.I can make healthy choices most of the time and still have some of the things I love.And. Still. Lose. Weight.
Onward and Downward!!
xoxoKBB

Way to gooooo!
For your challenge!! Good job!! Always observe and correct. I know you aren't in a huge hurry to begin another challenge, but for the every day following of plan, you know what works for you and what doesn't to proceed. Keep up the great work!!
Sorry about that. My life is sucking right now, but things are going to get back to normal. My SIL is gone (thank god) and starting tomorrow I am committing myself to a 30 days challenge. Here's to the next 30 days.
One pound a week - sounds like forever when we first start. What we tend to forget is how quickly time flies. Look at you! That dress is going to fit in no time. Good for you!
I just started on here and wanted to say that reading about your progress has been a huge inspiration to me. You are doing an awesome job......congrats! Keep up the great work and know that another person is rooting for you to wear the dress.
