I workout too.

in the hodge podge of things I ramble about, sometimes I neglect to mention my workouts. I write them in my journal here but simply forget to type them here.

here is an update.

I actually got complimented on my arms yesterday. Yep. Complimented.

I did 175 lbs. on the trap bar (which is almost like you are picking up 2 suit cases, one on each side)….picked it up once……yeah me!

I am weighing 121-124ish. I honestly have very little that I can wear anymore of mine. If not for my MIL & her yard sale-ing I dare guess I’d look like a drowned rat in my ‘too big for me now’ clothes. (not complaining, mind you…..it’s better on THIS side of the clothes issues)

I got up this morning & looked at my reflection in the mirror & FINALLY the scared areas of my lower belly are starting to go down. I felt/worried that this ‘big’ area of my body wouldn’t go down because of my prior surgeries, etc….but it seems that area too, is FINALLY starting to go down.

I’ve had several people seek my advice on working out. ME. I’m still in shock. I feel like I’m still the same girl that I once thought of as overweight, but looking in mirrors & being told by others has been reminders that this fitness thing is actually working for me.

I have gone from counting my macros everyday, I more or less just go with ‘eye balling’ what I’m eating because I seem to have gotten into the routine & mostly eat the same things……it’s just easier for me this way.

I am loving what working out is doing for me!
