So, I still consider the scale my friend. I did meet it with apprehension this morning, of course. But, as I slowly let out my breath and peeked down I read 292.0 on the scale! That means 1.2 pounds lost this week. Excellent. That is 20 pounds total in six weeks. Fabulous.
That gives me the extra boost of motivation I need for this upcoming week. We spent the day out in the sun with friends today at the water park. My chicklets had a blast, and are now sleeping sound in their beds. It felt great to get out and run (term used loosely, considering my ankle) around with them. I never even got sore or tired – even after hours of playing in the water. It felt amazing. I can really tell a difference in my stamina. After sitting at home for a couple hours, I am still not sore. Usually, after I sit and “relax” when I go to move again I feel all the aches and pains of standing for a long time, but not today. I love it.
How did your week go? Are you one step closer to being where you want to be? Are you motivated to face new challenges this week?
