What doesn't kill you makes you stronger...
Feb 22, 2012
I picked this title because I love the Kelly Clarkston song Stronger. The words are so powerful!So, this month I've been at a plateau. To be honest it wasn't as frustrating as one would imagine.I think part of the reason why it was ok with me was that I am losing inches. I've managed to get my behind in a few more size 10 jeans. I also have been able to wear size large shirts. I'm also not relying daily on my underarmour aka my Spanx.
This week I had off of work so I've had more energy to go to the gym. So yay gym!
Speaking of the gym, I went on Monday and my pants were too big. In fact they were so big that eventhough I pulled the string I was tripping on them. They were exercise pants I got from the Gap. Anywhoo, so I went to Target with my mom. We knew the XL would be too big. So I was going to get the large. She told me to try on the medium and they fit. So I bought two pair and I've been wearing them everywhere!
It's interesting, I mean I know I've been wearing smaller clothes but it didn't get me in my head that I've actually become smaller until I looked at myself in the mirror at the gym. It was one of those amazing moments.
I've also looked at Lent and what I'm giving up for it. Now since I've already given up so much this year which was for the better, I'm not really looking at that. I will however say that I still have the biggest sweet tooth and I love having a little chocolate square every now and again. Notice I said square not a whole bar! But, I can't give that up. What I decided to give up was shopping excessively. So no excessive shopping for 40 days. And I'd like to make a commitment to exercise more and this is definitely the time.
So, I'm getting it together. Definitely going to keep on moving. I have a doctor's appointment in a few weeks and I'm definitely trying to keep up the good work.
