Still slowly losing the tire.

So I have been at this whole "Revolution of me: eating healthy, working out, and being mindful of the world around me" journey (now that was a long winded sentence!).  It has had it's share of great moments and some bad moments as well....here are the highlights of this 12 week journey I have started :)

Good things:
  • feeling better about who I am 
  • Clothes are fitting better and are starting to get a little baggy :)  
  • I enjoy working out now (NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD SAY THAT)
  • I am finding it easier to incorporate a healthy lifestyle with my busy lifestyle by preparing meals in advance, planning my workout times, and accepting when time doesn't work in my favor.
Bad Things:
  • I miss DORITOS!!!
  • My clothes are starting to get baggy (being a broke college kid doesn't allow much money for shopping =] ).
  • Getting sick for 2 weeks really put a damper on my routine.
  • all these little things aside, things are actually all good =]
Now for the biggest highlight!!!!

 As of today I have officially lost 12.5lbs!!!!!  

It was so great to get on the scale for my weekly weigh in and see the progress I have made.  That in itself is a HUGE motivator.  I plan on continuing my working out and eating right for months to come.  I also have started taking 30 minutes a day (sometimes every other day)  to sit and be mindful of myself and my place in the world (I know it sounds a bit hokey, but I really enjoy this quiet time to myself).  

Here's to the showing myself that I can do it, even when I want Doritos's.
