And it’s only getting harder!!! I’ve been at about -25lbs. from my initial weight for about a month and a half… I weighed in this morning and the scale said about 148 from my initial 175… so maybe I’ll start seeing a little progress soon. I’m SO CLOSE!!

I think my actual goal now is to make it to 140 lbs. That’s not unreasonable for my height of being 5’2. I’m still quite overweight. I don’t notice a whole lot of change in my body, but others say they do. I have been getting very discouraged lately having only lost about 2 lbs. in 1.5 months or so, even though I’ve been working out and eating healthily the entire time.

Thanksgiving is coming up… and then Christmas!! =/ Yall send me good energies so I can make it through this and not gain back a lot of weight. Spending time with family is going to be a huge challenge. I wasn’t able to lose this weight until I went away to live on my own, and now I’ll be going back to my parent’s house for a week (4 hours away from my gym too!). =/

!!! I’m currently weighing in around 155 lbs. (thought it bounces around some) from my heaviest weight being around 175. I have been working hard since June or July, I believe. I’m trying to get down to 145 by November if at all possible… but it’s frustrating and a constant struggle.

If I can achieve that goal, I may try for another 10 lbs. over the course of the next few months afterwards… I’ve been overweight my entire life. I’m only 5’2, but I feel like even at 155 lbs. (still very overweight for my height), I’m in better shape than I have ever been in my life.

Wish me luck!!

I’ve been volunteering at the costume shop on campus twice a week. It’s just a factory-type warehouse where they sew the costumes for the current student and community-based plays, but it’s really been helping me to do things that I may not have been exposed to just sewing regular patterns, and it’s a lot of fun!! =) I’m on my second dress now! =)
