10 pound prize!

   So earlier this week, I was feeling a little discouraged. I started to feel like no matter what I did, I was never going to obtain the look/shape I want. I told myself what's the point. Yes, I can lose all this weight, but I'm always going to be big. I'm always going to be fat. This was very hard for me, and I'm not going to lie, I lost some of my hope for awhile. I went online and watched a few weight loss stories from other people, and I realized it is possible. Yeah, it's going to be hard, and it's going to take some time... a lot of time. But most of all, it's going to take effort. It's not going to be handed to me. It's not only my goal, but it's my struggle. It's only as hard as you make it out to be. I'm just going to try my best everyday for as long as it takes. I'm going to keep writing in this blog. I'm going to keep eating healthy, and I'm going to stay strong. It's going to work, but only if I work. Everyday is a new day. I just need to take it one day at a time.

   So, I love to swim. Swimming is not only a blast, but it is such a GOOD workout! You can burn so many calories from just a an hour or two of swimming. I'm going to try and go every other day from now on. I feel the reason why I lost the weight I lost this week is because of swimming. I suggest you go swimming if you are looking for a fun and easy workout.

  Well, as you can see from the title of this post, I lost 3 pounds this week, and I've reached my first goal. 10 pounds! I'm so happy! It took longer then I wanted, but hey, I'm here. I finally got my prize for losing 10 pounds. I go to go to McDonald's for dinner tonight! That was my prize. Yup, I rewarded myself with food. Just a small meal, and it was delicious. I didn't just reach my 10 pound goal, I went beyond it! I've lost a little over 12 pounds total since I've started! YEAHHH BUDDY! Now I just need to figure out what my next 10 pound prize will be, and get started. What do you suggest?
