I’m finally below 200 pounds! :D I’m so excited!  I’ve been waiting for this since the beginning of my healthy lifestyle journey.  (Incidentally, the beginning of my journey started 24 weeks ago.)  At the beginning, I felt like if I could just get below 200 pounds, I’d know I could reach my goals!  Thankfully, I realized I could reach my goals early in the game, which helped me keep going.  However, being under 200 pounds still feels awesome!  At this point, I have lost 29.2 pounds.  I’m .8 pounds away from hitting 30!

My personal training sessions have been going really well.  I’m always exhausted when I come home and I’m usually sore for the next couple of days.  It’s so worth it because I sleep better at night and I’m starting to feel like I have a little more energy as long as I go to bed at a decent hour. ;) I also think I’m already getting stronger, which is awesome because I have no upper-body strength.

Eating has also been going really well.  I still stay under my calorie limit each day and I also make sure I eat low-fat foods.  I’m going to start taking Vitamin B12 supplements because they help give you more energy and help you burn sugars more efficiently.

I really appreciate all the words of encouragement each time I post an update about my weight loss.  It means a lot and gives me more motivation to keep going!  Thank you so much for your support! :D
