I have to start off by saying that when I began trying to lose weight prior to this program, I had set an unrealistic goal of losing 50 pounds by my birthday. When we did our first weigh in, I had already lost 35 pounds. So with the weights and the change in diet again, I did struggle so my goal seemed further and further away but I knew I would get there, even if not by my birthday, not far from it. Today was going to be the deciding factor as Thursday is my birthday so Dorian and I made our way to the scale. She said she could see inches but hoped the scale showed it. It was a shock....I was down 10 pounds this week for better than my goal of 51 pounds....Woo-Hoo! That certainly did put a smile on my face. Had a tough work out today with chest and back, then went to spin and did my zumba tonight...(my inner dance diva, LOL!). Tired and ready to go to bed for a few zzz's. I hope everyone had a great 4th of July and I will see everyone around the gym. Thanks for the kind words from everyone who works at Dynabody and all the gym members who have been supportive to all of us in our struggles and victories!
