Hanging in there

This week I have been slacking.. I've worked out a couple times, but other than that I have been working on school work. I missed all last week because I didn't feel good.. So I had a lot of catching up to do with homework. I caught all up and now I'm good. I'm ready to graduate it's getting annoying going to school. I'm ready to start my new life at college. Excited and hoping I reach one of my weight loss goals before I leave!

Great Week

This week I've taken kind of a mental week and spent it with people I care about alot. They encouraged me to keep going, and they teach me to love myself. I didn't eat so great this week cause I was confused. That's changing this week :) I got this, I can't wait to get my YMCA membership :) have to go sign up for that! Have a great day everyone!

I got this :)

Everytime I feel like giving up, I look in the mirror and see how far I've come. I look at all the support I have around me. I feel like giving up a lot of the time. I think I'm not good enough at times. I know I am in the back of my head, but I have to find a way to overcome that little trigger. I deserve to be happy. I need to learn how to love myself before I can be loved by others. I got this :)
Have a great week! :)

This week has been very stressful. Lots of things on my mind, but I go through it :) I also lost another 3 pounds that I know of! Right now I'm on a school trip with my Career School do a competition. We will see how this goes. I'm working out tonight with my friends at the Hotel. I'm so excited:) everyone have a good week! Remember always keep smiling, and if you fall get right back up and keep striving. That's what I've been doing and I feel great! :)
