A BREAKTHOUGH!!

Okay, so I had a bit of a breakdown the other night. Not to worry, I'm okay and everything is back on track. I got my chocolate fix, Aunt Flow never did visit (I know I should be relieved) and I apologized to Maci for the threats I made to her (see previous post). All in all, I feel really good today and am SO excited that I didn't let those negative voices get the best of me and kept up on my jogging at least.

Well this morning I woke up and mosied into the bathroom to brush my teeth as usual. I walked up to the bathroom sink and then literally stopped dead in my tracks. Was I seeing things or did my stomach look a little bit flatter and my waist a little bit more defined?! I couldn't even believe that it was noticeable enough to stop me dead in my tracks, espcially when I wasn't even looking for it! I just looked smaller in that area! I wasn't scheduled to weigh until this Friday but I was so excited that I thought, what the heck and took a deep breath and stepped onto the scale. Well I was disappointed briefly when the scale told me that I had only lost 1/2 pound since I last weighed (we have a digital one) but it didn't last because I know without a doubt that I have lost inches! Everyone always tells you when you start a work out program to not get too discouraged if the numbers on the scale don't go down right away because you're gaining muscle and bla bla bla... I already know that but either way, of course we all want to see the scale numbers going down! Well I'm still super excited now because I could see with my own eyes the inches going away and if it was noticeable enough for me to notice without even looking then all I can say is: "Can I get a WHOOP WHOOP?!"
