This dress has been my goal for over a year. I bought it before fuck face moved out (right after we broke up) - it has a S/M/L size label which I usually avoid at all costs but I got a good deal on it. I knew it wouldn't fit when I bought it but I knew it would some day. I tried it on on Christmas Day and IT FITS FOLKS! I'm beyond excited.

Non-Scale Victory

I haven’t weighed in recently but I have bought pants.... down to a size 16. :)

HR

I went to the gym today(duh).... for some reason the second machine in the circuit I decided to do today spiked my heart rate every time... like we are talking 195-200 just for doing this one machine and it happens within a couple of seconds --- i think it has to do with the position it puts you in.... but I love the feeling of it on my legs. Well, that was my thought of the day... I should probably ask my trainer how normal/abnormal that is for that machine.... I’ve had heart issues in the past and am not sure if it’s me or the machine.

Today at the gym I had to work side by sides with a woman in her mid 40′s... She accidentally forgot to reset the leg press to her own weights after I used it and then complained that it was really difficult... my leg press had 160 pounds over what she usually does... the fact that she was capable of doing it means she isn’t actually gaining anything from the weights she’s been setting it at... she wanted nothing to do with re-setting her weights either.

I’ve barely slept for more than 3 hours per night in weeks. I need to start sleeping again or I’ll start losing my strength - If I’m exhausted I can’t perform in the gym. If I can’t perform I can’t lift full weights and that’s no way to reach goals. I haven’t slept normally in far to long.

Everyone Starts Somewhere

At the beginning of this year I cut off an engagement. With the end of the engagement came the freedom to eat as I pleased. I started shedding pounds immediately - without even trying. Over the 2 years leading up to this break-up I was in a really poor place as far as my mental and physical health goes. When I split from my son’s father and weight started dropping on it’s own I realized how much I missed my body. Within a few weeks time I found myself back in the gym several times per week; I reached out to my old team of trainers and got back into their facilities. We took measurements and a before picture which I would attach here however, I left it in my trainers hands because to be honest, I don’t want to look at that right now. I will make a page for my stats including measurements(monthly) and weigh-in’s(weekly). I was once the strong girl on the team; now I’m the one making my way back.
