30 day progress report...

So I am a few days late but I have been busy. I managed to lose 2 lbs and 26.5 inches in actual weight and stuff. There is a gap forming in between my knees and thighs and I am seeing the definition in my legs my shoulders and my chest. Yay for progress. But there was a big change in these past 30 days that was not scale or tape measure related. I gained confidence...a lot of it. I actually wore shorts and a tank top to daughters birthday party and I posed for pictures at the beach the next day. I haven't done that in awhile. Now I am no where near done by any means but I am feeling better about where the journey is going.

Weight loss is not just about losing the weight it is about finding out who you are, what you are made of, and just how strong you really can be.  I am and always have been a fat kid...even with the skinny bitch inside when it comes to Twinkies. Yes I cried a little when they said no more ever. (I did kick my Oreo addiction but that is another story.) Then there came that beautiful announcement...July 15th back on shelf. July 15th is payday and grocery shopping day....hot damn new box of Twinkies in my future but WAIT WAIT WAIT....haven't I just gone the last 9 months without them.....I have and guess who will return home twinkieless on Monday July 15th...Yup this bitch right here. This is where I am strong...as I am typing this I am thinking about the bucket of ice cream in my freezer left over from my daughters birthday party, drinking my water like a good little kid but really wanting what is in freezer. I am bigger then the addiction to food. Bigger then....lmao, I am bigger because of the addiction to the food, so I guess I am smaller for kicking the Oreo and Twinkie habit. All jokes aside I am making progress that I have never seen before. I am feeling better and other then pushing a stroller through the sand with a 20lb little rug rat inside in flip flops all activity doesn't wind me anymore. Even stairs aren't such a pain in the ass.

So anyone have any small victories here lately? Let's here them and hey readers like the page on Facebook...yup you guessed it Mad Dieter.

Happy Dieting!!!
