One Month Report

Well, today marks one month since I started my weight-loss plan. I'm proud to say I've done my required amount of cardio every single day except for two. (Once when I was moving, and another time when I was bed-ridden with horrible cramps. So...nothing unexcusable, right?) I've been watching everything I put into my mouth and trying to make good choices.

And here we are.
I am down...

(Can I get a *drumroll*?)

Over ten pounds.

Woot! Yes, it's anywhere between 10 and 11 depending on the time of day, of course.
This makes me very excited, and I know it's paying off.

I do feel a little bit of disappointment, because, you know, I'm a perfectionist and always want things to go better than they do. However, I know it's not about getting to the finish line first right now. It's about making a complete lifestyle change. It's going to take work in order to get there, but I will. I know it. I got past the first month, and that's one of the toughest things, right?

As I keep saying, this is about me. And I'm worth it.

Thanks to all for the support you've given me, whether you're a fellow SparkPeople member who made your way over here or a family member/friend who even just said, "You're looking good!" It all helps.

P.S. Also, I'm incredibly happy, because my Grandpa's scans came back great! He doesn't have to have chemo for another 2 months AT LEAST. Way to go, Gramps! I love you!
