Sweet!

I weighed myself today and LOST 1.4 LBS (.64 kg) this week for a total of 78.8 pounds(35.74 kilograms) LOST in 59 weeks.

I can TASTE 80 pounds, and I am not giving up! My goal is 100 lbs (45.36 kg) by Venezuela. I bought my ticket this weekend. Praying that I continue to lose and I can fly somewhat comfortable. I just do not want to spill over into the seat next to me. If I can do that, I will be really HAPPY! I will be going from July 26-August 16, 2011. I am really excited and the only thing that would make it better is if Frank could go with me, but his job is just too demanding. Thankfully, he understands why I need and want to go and he is supportive.

So this week, my friend helped me clean out my closet. I am really grateful as I needed her to say "LET IT GO!" and help me purge my closet. There were 7 trash bags thrown away of clothes that were just too big. That's always a nice feeling!

I worked out with the trainer this weekend. I told him about my injuries and how my legs were just THROBBING from running so he curtailed the workout and he still KICKED MY ASS! He is really good though, wish I had the cash to get him here more than once per week.

In the process of cleaning out the closet, I found tons of work clothes, with tags still on them in various sizes. I am now wearing a size that I have not worn since High School! People at work are starting to notice now, which is always awesome.

This week was Mother's Day and it was single-handedly, THE HARDEST DAY that I have had since my beloved mommy was taken from us. I felt such an emptiness and it was really painful. Seeing all the mom's with their flowers and all dressed up at church was truly an agonizing experience. Thankfully, the Lord comforts...

So this week, I want to add another workout to my regimen. Hopefully, an extra day will allow me to have a higher loss next week. We shall see, thanks for reading!
