Over my weight loss journey I have focused so hard on achieving my set goal weight that I have forgotten that not all progress is numbers. I wish I could say I was losing weight to be healthy or look skinnier but that is only part of it. In order for me to contract in the Army I have to either be 136 lbs or be a 30% BMI according to Army BMI standards. This has left me constantly looking to achieve numbers as progress.
This week was full of many disappointments, not only did I gain .3 lbs I did't meet my monthly goal for DietBet and a few other disappointments as well but I'm not here for a pity party I am here to talk about the POSITIVES!!!!! I love a good before and after picture! So much so that almost every night as I am laying in bed I am flipping through before and after pictures. It's a bit of an obsession I know, but ya'll let's be real they are SO inspiring when you see a before and after and it doesn't even look like the same person. That is where I am trying to be! Enjoy the journey my friends

What a journey my friends! I have to be honest I have been beyond discouraged with my progress lately! I have been working so hard to lower the number on the scale and it won't even budge. But today when I compared my before picture to a picture I took at the gym this week I was reminded that the scale is not the only way to measure progress.
Alrighty guys week one of tracking my weight loss on YouTube has FINALLY been posted! Check it out down below and stay tuned for another video next week. Enjoy the Journey!
