I think I can I think I can.....

So that weight loss plan I talked about back in May fell apart somewhere in my summer, but only for a while and I am back on track. In the past month I have lost 10 pounds (and 2 belt loops!). I am counting calories. After cutting back on your eating for a few weeks, it does get easier. I am hardly ever hungry. I am also too busy to think about food most days. I work full time. I go to school two nights a week. I babysit one night a week. Whew! It's exhausting! I am also doing Billy Blanks boot camp video. Also exhausting.
I just try to keep reminding myself that if I lost 10 pounds in a month, maybe I can lose ten pounds this month, and maybe another 10 the next. And maybe by this time next year, I will actually look like the person I want to look like.
The hardest part is some weeks you lose three pounds, and some weeks you gain one. But no matter what, I have to keep going. I have to do this.
Next time I check in (if I ever get another chance in my busy schedule) I hope it's only to tell you I have lost more weight, and maybe I will even be brave enough to throw in a picture. Maybe :)
