Happy Holidays!

Today is Christmas Eve and since my family is possibly celebrating Christmas this year, my dad is characteristically at Walmart right now.

I set a goal to get down to 155 lbs by Christmas day. I know I won't get down to exactly that tomorrow morning but what I do know is that I'm going to be within 5 lbs of that! Most likely less than 3 lbs of my goal, actually! I know that the goal is what I set it at, however if I can get close to that then it's good enough for me! I've accomplished so much that being this close is good enough for me!

I'll update more after Christmas to be sure as to how close I got to my goal, as well as to reflect on this past year. It's going to be a long post, so keep a look out! :)

When decorating the tree I found one of the jems that I created in elementary school. Go ahead, bask in that beautiful Santa that 8 year old me created!

The Slow and Steady Turtle Wins the Race... Right?

I'm still alive! I promise I'm still alive!

I've been gone for a while because I neglected to write anything on here during the fall semester. I'm really going to try to regularly post though, hopefully keeping myself more accountable.

I'm sad to report that although I blissfully wrote about how excited I was that I entered the 160's in August, I'm still there.

However! I'm ordering my HRM soon and I'm going to start Insanity after the New Year when I get back to my apartment and get back into the swing of things and back into my regular schedule. I'm going to move past the 160._ that I've been looking at for the past few weeks.

I AM GOING TO GET INTO THE 150s, BEFORE THE END OF 2012!
I AM GOING TO WEAR A BIKINI THIS SUMMER.
I AM GOING TO LOOK HOT DURING SPRING BREAK.
I AM GOING TO MEET MY GOALS.

To help motivate me, I compared May to December pictures. 32lbs lost. Even though I'm not a super fan of how I look in the second picture, since my tummy area looks a little weird, but I look fantastic in it compared to May's picture. Check it out! 


I will stay more active on here, even though I'm pretty sure no one reads this. lol! I'm doing this for myself, not for other people. However, if I could help someone else out by doing this, all the better! :)
