"One Step at a Time" (even if it's one step back)

This week has probably been one of the most stressful of my academic career, which makes the fact that I ended up gaining a little this week not so big of a deal. I started the week down another 1.6 and ended the week up 0.4. In the scheme of things, it's not a big deal. I know that I need to keep my mind in the game and try not to gain during these next few days, since it's finals time. In order to remind myself of how far I've come, I looked up things that weigh 20lbs, and, ironically, what came up? A TIRE! I have lost a "spare tire," most of which came from my thighs and stomach. Crazy! I must say, the place where I notice it the most is in my upper arms. I've been taking pictures of my progress and noticed last night that my arms are so much more toned than they were in the same outfit in late December (before I started this journey). In any case, before I begin to dissect and analyze my progress, boring y'all to death, I'll just conclude that this process takes changes that occur one step at a time, and, while this week was a step backward, I know it's not the beginning of a trend in that direction. I'm still 20.6steps ahead and look forward to many more.


Besito,
A
