Well, I just finished my first dietbet (Lose Weight Win Money with Fitness Magazine) and I lost. Instead of being dissapointed, I have decided to take a look at the positive aspects of this journey thus far:
- I lost 25 lbs over the last 2 years,
- I became a runner (and can run a half marathon),
- I lost 5 lbs during this Dietbet,
- I remained focused during this Dietbet in a healthy, balanced way,
- I did not quit when I made mistakes!
This is a good step for me. So, even though this battle is lost, I WILL win this war. I have signed up for the Jillian Michaels Beginner Shred Challenge and the Transformer (Oct 7 - Apr 6). I know where I made mistakes and how to get back onto the road of success. I am not a quitter and accepting my imperfections is better than giving up. I am excited to see what lies ahead and discover more about weight loss and myself in the process!
