I hit my "goal" weight spot on this am.. It was surprisingly not a big deal to me? I guess for a few reasons.. one: I know I want to drop some more fat and two: after doing this for the last year plus, the numbers just don't hold the magic for me.. it's more the way I feel and look, and it's not like all of a sudden my work is done.. I got a lifetime to try my damnedest to stay healthy. I AM happy, don't get me wrong.. but it wasn't a big Happy-Happy-Joy-Joy moment.. which 30lbs ago I thought it would be.. More of a "hey, cool" moment.
Which brings me to the other part.. I am still dropping, and won't be changing anything up yet- other than to add some more serious weights to the mix as I have a case of washboard chest happening, and I'm not fond of seeing & feeling all the ribs. Need to lift heavier and get that filled in better- arms, good- legs, good.. chest.. nope! Everything though could be bigger with muscles. I like them on me.. just need to work harder at that part. I can hike my butt off, and I can help clear a fallen tree (yesterday's chore at my parents.. hoping I didn't get any poison ivy!) Things I could never have done one year ago. Those types of things make me feel great about this whole deal.
I will get my husband to snap some pics of me and post them later in the before & afters section. Last time I took any was when I got under 200, so I'm overdue for that reality check, and probably in need of it too. Till then, here's to keeping on!
