The scribble to success.

The past few months in Colorado haven't been the best as far as weight loss goes. Letting myself get out of control with eating out, letting myself think it was ok to go drink multiple times a week (then sneak on over to trusty taco bell once I was drunk) ..calories consumed while drunk don't count right?

I saw my wedding day fast approaching and I told myself NO!
No more eating crap because "fuck it, I want to dammit!"
no more letting myself be brought down by others by following their lead when they would skip workouts or eat crap. They are not in control, I Am.
No more saying "back on track tomorrow"
for me..tomorrow is to late.

10 days ago I decided to start the 20 Day Shred by Jillian Michael's for the second time. In those first 10 days i've lost almost 5 lbs. (keep in mind those 5 were a part of the same 10lbs I've been gaining and losing for the past few months. Now that i'm back down to almost my lowest since the journey started I am not giving up! I feel like i'm back and more motivated than ever. I have a monthly calendar filled out with workouts through the end of the month including 30day shred, random youtube workouts, walking/running, Color me rad 5k!(woo), as well as an arm challenge and a plank challenge. 

I can be mad at myself for not going as hard as I could have since moving here.. but instead i'm choosing to tell myself that i still have lost 40+lbs on this journey so far, there are going to be up's and downs.. as long as I don't quit, I have already won.
The journey to success is a windy one folks.. sit back and enjoy the ride, and never give up!
