Disappointment

It has been a looonnnngggg time since I have blogged and honestly it is because I have been stuck. As you may have noticed I have not been able to break through to the low 150’s. For the past 3 weeks I have been about the same weight. This Friday was the first time since I started to blog that I have just completely omitted Shout Out Friday.  However my weight on Friday was 155.6. So needless to say I have been very disappointed in myself as well as my recent progress or lack thereof. The past week has brought about a few changes as well that have kept me busy, but normally I would have made the time to blog. After getting a nudge via twitter from Ella last night I decided that is was time for me to get back on it and blog. The best part about it is that when I got up this morning I got on the scale and it read 154.2lbs. I was sooooo happy to get down past 155; the scale might as well have read 130. Also I went to see my sister for her birthday Sunday and she had some clothes that she couldn’t fit anymore so she gave them to me. In the lot was a pair of size 8 dress pants, I took them hoping to get in them by November or December. However when I got home and tried on all the clothes I found out that I could fit them J WoooHoo! Now don’t get me wrong I am not saying that I am in a size 8. I am just saying I could fit those size 8s, I am comfortably fitting in my 10s for right now. Another reason I wanted to go ahead and get to 154 was because when I first started Noom back in May I was 184lbs and my goal weight was 154.5lbs. I was so excited when I realized 3 weeks ago that I was less than 2lbs from my goal. The excitement started to fade however when I got stuck and then even more when I went back up to 156 from 155. I am happy to say however that my excitement is renewed now that I have reached my goal. Also I am even happier because my goal on My Fitness Pal is 145lbs and I am less than 10lbs from reaching that one. I have learned from my mistakes so I will not be putting a time frame on when I would like to meet that goal but I am determined to make sure that I do. It is amazing to me when I think back to the person I was when I set these goals and I can’t say that I actually knew that it was possible then. But having met one and being less then 10lbs away from meeting the other I now know that anything is possible.
