  1. After a week of keeping my mind on the goal, I got down from 196.2lbs to 193.9lbs. I am soo happy. I have not words to describe it. It gave my a renewed hope that I can come down a bit more. I personally don't like being so close to the 200lbs because it is soo easy to get back up to that amount. 

    This weekend, I spent time looking at my older workout videos and that the one that gets me is the pull up. My first time, I did 3 and 1/2. I struggled soo much to do that. Then the next week, I was doing 6 and I was not struggling as much. It just reminded how far I had come.

    Sometimes we focus on the finish line soo much, we do not take time to look back and see how far we have come from the starting line. I have come to the conclusion that I may not get to my weight goal due to my love of weight lifting and strength training but I will take being able to do a pull up and one day hopefully as push up any time.

      CONGRATS!!! And I agree, I'd rather be a higher weight number and be all muscle than be 'skinny fat' haha keep lifting! Hoping I can do even one pull up down the road :D haha

      Exactly what @karen_marie says! The number on the scale is meaningless when it comes to how much muscle you actually have. There have been many people who were like 130 lbs and packed on another 15 lbs and looked even better due to muscle gain. So, stick with the muscle plan....your body will love you more for that. :)
