I CAN do that!

I've lost a few pounds in the last week, and couldn't be happier. Exercising really does give me more energy and a greater sense of self-worth. Still have a long way to go, but small goals count too! Every single ounce lost is a personal achievement.

I have to give a shout out to the trainers at LA Boxing, who's classes have contributed to a six pound weight loss in 9 days. Each class I've attended is unique to the style and personality of the trainer, but each one has in common this: I'm learning that I can do things I didn't think I could do. Add a kick to that combo? Yeah, I can do that. 30 seconds of hooks and then squats? I can do that, too. Add five burpees? Well, I'm still working on that one, but I'm a whole lot closer than I used to be!

Thanks Amanda, I appreciate the support! Per your request, I will make an effort to post more often, even if it's just a little bit! And didn't I read that you celebrated a 20 lbs weight loss? That's awesome!
