I wasn't sure why I wanted to lose the weight honestly, maybe because my job switched to a male dominated work place, maybe it's because I'm starting to approach 30 and things aren't as easy to come off, and my metabolism is slowing very much down. Still was keeping my fingers crossed I was big boned (which is hilariously not possible.)
Then as I started to work out, ever so slowly, and the weight came off... ever so slowly. I realized that this was entirely for me. I NEED to feel better, I NEED to be healthier, I NEED to be in control of my future.
I don't want to have an ridiculously long post, because my journey is still very much in motion, Dance fitness has changed my perspecitve and some love from my biggest critic (myself.) I'm choosing to do this now for more than to look like I could pass for 21, instead of 28 knocking on my door. To get a whistle or some attention from someone who wouldn't of noticed before. To make my husband incredibly proud of me for setting my mind to something. FYI, it's okay to get a whistle from a stranger even if you're married, lighten up!
The long term goal is 75lbs, which I would've never imagined wanting to lose that much! But honestly it's doing a lot of research to figure out that's the bracket I would like to be in, and even if it's not perfect I'm better off than I was before (on the couch.)
If a single person doesn't read this, I'm okay with that. I needed to say it to myself.
Keep pushing yourselves guys and girls ! Do it for YOU.
