I should be 4 months in and at least 20 pounds slimmer today. That's something to think about.

Where can you go in 11 months?

I can be a buff 147 pounds in 11 months. I'll have to bust my ass to do it, but there is so much I'm ready to do with my life and this is step one. This is the hardest step. When I complete this, I'll have assured myself that I can do anything I want.

Who doesn't want that?

A 5 minute workout this morning (I know, lame, but my roommates were bothering me and I just wanted to get out of the house)

Grapes for breakfast.

I have been off the wagon for so long that I'm actually craving healthy foods, water and exercise. Like, I really want to be good ( Read more... )

I have actively not gone to the gym for about a week now. Maybe longer than that, but only today and yesterday did I own up to it and not make excuses.
