Still going

Well I am officially 1 pound from my goal.  I have really struggled with this, I should be happy, yet it has taken a long time.  I have lost a 1/2 pound every week for weeks.  I know I have not been as diligent about my works out.  I can say my life is very busy, but that is an excuse.  I can say I tired, but I know that is an excuse.  I have also not been religiously inputting my food into www.myfitnesspal.com.  All of these factors play into the 1/2 pound.  I am proud to say I have lost, and like everyone else on the weight lose journey will say with me, its never fast enough.  I have promised myself to work harder, exercise more and go back to filling in my journal.  I have noticed that my body totally reacts to a lack of water (holy bloated batman), too many carbs (coma sleep now please), and not enough exercise (couch looks really good).  I will push myself and get to my goal and when I do, I think I will need to scream from a mountain somewhere.  A lot of people have asked me what my reward will be, and I have struggled with an answer, because I think seeing the numbers and the results will be enough.  For those on this journey, hang in there, it is worth it.  Too my girlie girls that are my rocks, you will be the first to know, and a celebration via a "porch night" will be epic!  I have also promised a friend to help each other do a 5 km race in the fall.  Getting there will be fun, NOT, but it will be totally worthwhile.  When she mentioned it, she said next year my answer to her was "why wait lets do this fall".  So, the training has begun and will continue.  Even if I walk half its something I have not done with a friend and want to say I have.  Fingers crossed for me for the next few weeks that I get to my only goal I set out and I promise you will hear when I do!  Thanks for listening!
