Hey Loved Ones!!!
It's been awhile since I've updated you guys on my weight loss progress. I've been extremely busy getting prepared for the launch of my new company, My Life Keys. I've also been working out non-stop in preparation for my photo shoot with the incomparable, B. Breezy, from The Studio Concept. They are based out of Atlanta, GA. She is an amazing photographer, amongst other things. Feel free to take a look at her work by clicking HERE and you can visit The Studio Concept by clicking HERE.
As I said earlier, I've been going through some very intensive work out's in preparation for the photo shoot and the launch party so I've lost quite a bit of weight. At my last weigh-in, I was only 10lbs away from losing 100lbs. I'm excited to hit that goal, as I'm sure you can imagine! Anyway, my clothes have gotten quite loose on me so I bought a few pairs of new jeans. I bought them small, (or so I thought) because I knew I'd quickly be able to fit into them. I had a lunch date yesterday with a good friend of mine and as I was getting ready, I thought, "Just go ahead and try on the jeans!" You see, I was scared that if they didn't fit, it would upset me and derail all of the positive work I've been doing. But something told me to go ahead and try on the jeans.... I'm SO glad that I did.
THE JEANS FIT PERFECTLY!!!! They made my legs look INCREDIBLE! Then I thought to myself, "Well shoot, if the new jeans fit, let's try on the new shirts that were too small last month." So I go into my closet and grab this cute, chocolate brown baby tee and IT FITS TOO.... I take that back... it's actually a little loose! I felt SO sexy in my new clothes. I could FINALLY tell by looking in the mirror, that I was in fact losing weight and accomplishing my goals. I have a tendency to see myself differently than other people see me. When people say, "OMG you've lost so much weight!!", I always think to myself, "Are they BLIND?!? Because I dont see it!" NUMBERS DON'T LIE!!! Yes, the number on the scale is going down, but my inches are going down as well. Everything is shrinking and THAT is a FACT I cannot deny. Everywhere I went yesterday, I received compliments: "Look how tiny your legs are!!", "You are GLOWING! What are you doing?", "Your skin looks INCREDIBLE!!!", "You are RADIANT!!". I was overwhelmed and humbled by it all.
The milestone that I reached was the fact that the new jeans I wore yesterday are TEN SIZES SMALLER than the jeans I was wearing 11 months ago. I feel healthy, sexy, beautiful, capable, AMAZING, radiant, and UNSTOPPABLE!! Not only am I working my body out, but I'm working my mind out as well. I am repeating my affirmations EVERY DAY, I am finally seeing myself through eyes of LOVE. I want to post a pic of me in my new jeans but my Publicist wants me to remain "low key" until the BIG REVEAL at my birthday/launch party on March 20th. I'll make sure to keep you guys posted.
Next milestone: To lose 100lbs. Here I come...
