Attitude:
Well, I've earned another movie. And I'm now down to my pre-pregnancy weight from my 4th child. I've also reached the 20% mark of my goal of 80lbs IN JUST ONE MONTH! One would think I'd be super excited. And I am in a quiet unassuming way. Part of me is still frightened of what it will be like to be smaller. HHT was trying to be supportive and wanted me to visualize what a 16lb loss actually meant so he got out two 8lb weights and had me hold them. Then he said that was the weight I was no longer carrying on my body. I'd be able to exercise better, move better, etc. without the weight. And he's right. So I'm determined to shut out the voices in my head that say, "Yeah, big deal. 16lbs. You still have so very far to go. Do you really think you can make it? And what would you find if you did?" Voices, I say to you, "16lbs is a big deal. It's a fantastic start to my journey. I do think I can make it. And I don't know what I'll find at the end of this journey, but I'm willing to step out and go because I know what's here if I don't even try and that is no longer an option for me. I choose to be a healthier person!"
