Turning 30....a new era!

So, three days until my 30th Birthday, and I'm SO excited! Everyone thinks I'm crazy, but truth be told, I honestly never thought I would actually live to be 30. Since I joined Simply for Life last year, I really feel like I am finally gaining the life I always aspired to have. My weight loss was what motivated me to be able to face my fears. I now think about myself and how unhealthy I was and I feel this incredible freedom! I pray I live a long full life now. Thirty is only the beginning!

Had my last appointment at Simply For Life...at least for the time being. Not really the best of visits. I had gained a bit from eating unhealthy this past week. One of the coolest things about SFL is that I now really know my body and how to listen to what your body needs. I struggle, but I'm still learning more about what my body needs with training and what foods and emotions trigger me to binge or just eat unhealthy. I'm really going to know my body WELL by the time I get ready to do a show!

Feeling my muscles again today. My legs...especially my right one, are sore and I could barely walk up the stairs to work today. Plus I am a little bloated from the weight gain. I still made myself walk the stairs. Walked up and down several floors over the course of the day. I refuse to take the elevator anymore. I feel so great, even with this soreness. It's a good feeling...knowing the muscles are growing. I just wish I could see my abs. I can feel 'em though! That's something I guess!
