I weighed myself this morning like I do every Saturday morning when I woke up. I weigh 214!!! That’s almost 4 pounds less than last week but only 1.6 less than 2 weeks ago. I don’t care! I lost weight again finally! I thought I would show you my weight since I started this journey at the end of November.
I go up and down as the weeks go by but so far since November 30th, I have lost 5.4 pounds. I wanted to lose a pound a week and I have done that so far! See, I’m looking long term and not at any gain or loss weekly. Promise I won’t get distressed or frustrated! You can refer me back to this post if I do.
Last night, I really thought I had gained weight as my stomach roll (skin) is hanging lower than normal. After seeing my scale this morning, I believe it is excess skin and the fat is leaving therefore I will just have skin hanging there. It’s gross I know but also kind of exciting to not have fat, just skin.
I am going to go celebrate with a workout today. Y’all have a good one!
I started thinking about this About Me part of my blog. I'm going to expand it just a little from the 3 words I had before.
I am a single mom. I love my son. We have been alone since he was 6 months old. He really is my sun, moon, and stars. I am very proud of him.
I am an entrepreneur. I started my driving business 2 years ago. I don't want to work for a "boss" ever again. I always tell people they can do it too. In what I do, there is no competition because there are plenty of people that need rides (and maybe that would help get some of these bad drivers off the roads!). I work hard and have fun on my own time doing what I like to do.
I really am a Netflix addict. When I am not working or doing something with my son, I am watching Netflix. There are so many shows that I've never re-watched anything either. I will watch anything and make my own opinion.
I am opinionated. This blog is really just my opinions and my life. People don't have to agree with me all the time. I welcome discussions and other people's opinion whether they agree or not. I'm not petty, I'm not going to block anyone for not sharing my opinion, why do people freak out these days when someone doesn't share their opinion? Who cares?!? There is a reason we all are different.
There's a lot more about me but you'll have to read the blog to find out!

Good job! I am happy for you! Your hard work paid offπ
I need to eat better. I wonβt share my food diary because I eat whatever I can find and itβs definitely not always healthy, but I stay in my calories!
Then you’re tackling something. I always think you have to get good at one thing before you add another. I’d focus on working out and when the scale stops moving down, then tackle your food:) my two cents worth for what it’s worthπ€£
Lol I just gave in and bought a snack at the airport. I do much better when I don’t have a ton of options. I’d find it difficult if I could stop in a store during the day!
