A little over two months ago, I decided to make a list of goals that I wanted to complete by the end of summer. I didn't realize how much progress I had already made with three months til my deadline! Here are the updates:
>>Stop drinking soda: I have actually stuck with this one. I had one vodka and Sprite while in Vegas, but I've been soda free otherwise.
>>Lose fifteen pounds (or more): I have currently lost twelve pounds! I am so excited. It's crazy how much cutting portions and counting callories can help you! I've also been going to yoga more frequently than I have before (but still not as much as I'd like to). I feel more energetic and flexible than ever!
>>Plant something and keep it alive: I made a succulent terrarium about a month ago and that sucker is still alive and kickin'. I'm surprised at how much it's grown! I bought a macrame hanger for it, but I'm waiting until I move out to hang it anywhere. I'm not trying to put any more holes in my parents' walls and ceiling.
>>Get a full time job: I got promoted at my second job from cashier to shift lead which includes a significant pay raise and increase in hours. I will be making enough money to be able to move out and live in a studio apartment on my own! I've done lots of research and have found a few places I'm interested in.
>>Have a garage sale: My parents had a garage sale a few weeks ago and I sold a bunch of clothes. I am now $17 richer.
>>Save some money each paycheck to treat myself to something nice: I am the worst saver ever. So I'm still working on this one.
>>Run a mile in under eight minutes (My fastest mile time was 7:12): I ran once and remembered how much I hate it. Yoga forever.
Here's a visual of my weight loss progress:
My face has thinned out significantly, my legs are looking slimmer (and paler), my tummy is a lot flatter, and boobs are shrinking (I don't mind that actually). I'm feeling good. I shrank a pant size in the last two months which means I'm back to the size I was my senior year of high school! I'm currently a size 10 and I'm hoping to get down to a size 8 by July. I'm feeling so much better about myself. The progress is making me more motivated to keep up with my diet. I'll try and update you guys again soon!
Thanks for reading!
