Thanks to your inspiration Mary, I am writing down this goal, and I hope to start to feel a difference. It's always hard to keep up when you're not trying to lose 100 pounds, because the results sometimes take more time to start to see. This is why past attempts have failed. Without seeing the difference in a couple weeks, it's hard to think anything is really working.
I'm excited about January because I can have a tunnel vision about 3 things. I only have one class to juggle and RCC. And now, I'll be adding weight loss to the mix. I'm going to get a leg up on my RCC practicing before the spring semester begins, and I will have more ample time to set aside specific times for running/Tae Bo.
Let's get started.

indeed! let's get started :) i'm very very excited. Something that has been working for me lately: First of all, I truly believe that there is a skinnier version of myself somewhere inside just waiting to be seen. I truly believe that that person will (as I grow) reflect how confident and healthy I feel on the inside. When I sit down to eat, I eat for that person, not who I am. This is to say that I make sure I eat only as much as I think that person would eat. Small portions of healthy food...that is what the person inside of me eats, not the person I am on the outside. And you're absolutely right! it's really hard. In the very beginning I lost about 7 or so pounds, but since then it's leveled off. That is kinda upsetting to me because I spent my whole vacation eating almost entirely well and exercising almost every day...I still haven't lost more weight. But when I think about it, I was at my ideal weight about the beginning of my sophomore year. That means that I've been putting on this weight little by little for 3 years!!!! It would be unrealistic to expect to lose it all in a month or two. In fact losing it all that quickly, you don't have as good of a chance to keep it off.
But like I said...Lydia, I am SO excited to keep my growth on the inside and ALSO to look just as great as I feel. I KNOW I can do it, and I can't wait to show off my new body when I get it. I hope that you are sharing my excitement because it's a WONDERFUL feeling.
I know you can do it!!!
love you!
