Friday Celebrations

Friday has arrived once again and with it comes our weekly chance to celebrate! Look within yourself and find a victory for the week, no accomplishment is too small. Every step you take toward your goal is a good one. Share your victories so we can celebrate together, just click on Feedback and let us all know what you have done this week!

 

My celebration for this week is a very exciting one for me. My goal is to be a more health-conscious mom and so weight loss is a natural side effect of my efforts. If any of you are very “fluffy” you know that it takes larger losses to see much of a difference. I have been unable to visualize a difference in myself so far and that can be discouraging. I had bought a shirt to work a specific event May 18. It fit just fine for that event so when I needed that shirt for this past Sunday I dug it out and threw it in my suitcase. Much to my surprise upon getting dressed Sunday morning, the shirt was too big! For me this was a physical victory in that my efforts are paying off and I know someday I will have a healthy appearance, it was also a mental victory in that I could finally see a difference for myself.

 

Believe in yourself for this entire journey no matter what! Have faith that even if your eyes can not see it, you are changing and it is definitely a great thing! XOXO

That's great Holly! There was a point when I was cleaning out my closet this spring and came across a ton of clothes from when I was thinner. I started trying them on and much to my amazement, a lot of them fit! It was like I had a whole new wardrobe. Keep it up, you're so inspiring!
