From Fat to Fierce: My Weight Loss Journey | Week 2

So at first I felt disappointed in myself that I had only lost 1.6 pounds. But then I realized, after much self loathing, that I should be proud of my accomplishment. I ate pretty healthy for the week, even got to enjoy pizza, worked out for 5 days, and still lost weight. I didn't have to starve myself or slave at the gym! My disappointment came from a never ending need to see large results, quickly. That's why I was so pumped last week. But if you stop and remember, if you saw my vlog, I started the week (5 days) doing the 17 day diet. And it was so rough. I felt like I was dying and cried almost every day. Towards the end of the week I downloaded his amazing app called My Plate, and I've been happy ever since.

So the point of this post, besides showing you all what I accomplished this week, is to be proud of ANY accomplishment you make! Only lost a little like me? BE PROUD! Didn't lose weight but lost inches? BE PROUD! hey, at least you're still getting smaller! Just don't ever let yourself get down for the things that you do that are actually good! I step forward is a step in the right direction!

From Fat to Fierce: My Weight Loss Journey | Week 1

This isn't just a weight loss journey, this is proving to be quite an emotional one as well. And that's okay. Sometimes we need to breakdown entirely to rebuild completely. This isn't the beginning post or the I hope I'm going to do this post. This is the "I've already been at this for a week so I'm kind of committed" post. Follow along with me on this journey as I attempt to not only transform my body, but also transform my mind.

Each week I'm going to give you a basic run down of my feelings. Gettin' all emotional up in here! I'm also going to include my weight and measurements of each new week. You'll be able to see how many inches, in specific areas and in total, I've lost as well as how much weight. I don't have any before pictures, as I'm sure you can guess I try to avoid the camera at all times, but I do have a video showing you my beginning body frame/size/whatever you want to call it, my "before". My sister tagged me to do the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge and of course I wasn't going to say no, so I did it. But that'll be at the end, so if you want to see that, scroll ALL the way down.
