Sad but True

Hey ladies, Well I finally stepped on a scale last night at the gym. Let me first say that I DO NOT weigh myself as I feel that if I feel good and look good in my clothes then I don't care what I weigh. I have no desire to be a size 4 or whatever. I looked back at pictures from when we all went to Winnipeg years ago. I have a picture of us sun tanning at Marvins pool, lol. I was wearing a belly shirt and very short shorts. Now of course back then I though I was fat but looking at it now...DAMN I looked good in them jeans. I still have the shorts that I was wearing in the picture and they are a size 8. That is going to be my goal, probably not in 9 weeks but a life time goal. I hung them up on my bathroom door so that I see them everyday....Motivation I guess. So back to the scale....I was mortified at the number that I saw. I called Steph right away to vent about but when she called back, I was over it and ready to keep moving!! I really dont want to share the number I saw but let me tell you this. I have gained 60 POUNDS since I was 24...YIKES!!! I am so happy that we decided to do this. Not only the vanity side of things I can only imagine what this has done physically to my body. Kind of mad I let this happen but doing something about it makes me feel better. So I'm back to the gym tonight. Last night I fast walked 1.5 miles and did arms and abs so I will aim for 2 miles tonight.

Happy losing Everyone!!!! Good job Stacy at not eating junk last night. I think of you guys as well when I want to be lazy!!
