I will write more later...for now, I just want to shout at the top of my lungs...I DID IT!! I surpassed my goal this morning and have lost 161.5 pounds.
I have been crying for 10 minutes now and the tears are not stopping. When I started this journey, I honestly never imagined I would achieve such a lofty goal. I am at a loss of words at the moment...but trust me...it won't take long for me to find them.
OH HAPPY DAY!!
This has been one crazy week for me. I can best sum it up in pictures...
I reached my major weight loss goal this week and I celebrated with a few purchases. A new dress, some new bling jeans, and a new pair of cowboy boots.
I then decided that I needed to learn how to protect myself. I figured the best way to get over my fear of guns was to take the bull by the horns and learn how to shoot one. I have to tell you...it was AMAZING. I enjoyed it so much, I am purchasing one of the guns I shot with. I shot a 9mm, a .40, and a 357. I won't tell you which one I am purchasing but if anyone tries to break in or harm me again...rest assured they will find out!
My friend who took me to the shooting range said I may have missed my calling because I did so well for my first time ever shooting a gun. Even though another friend told me that my shots should be in tighter groupings in the chest...I don't think this "guy" is getting up any time soon.
Even though I have reached my goal weight, my journey is far from over. I am working on building a hard body (or something close to it) so I started jogging and am now working out with a personal trainer. Who would have thought I was capable of that?
I also started tanning...something I have never been good at...Not sure about you but I think 8 minutes was too long for this white girl...
