View DBRAZIEL's food & exercise for this day

:rock1: -70.6!!! :rock1: This AM I was 225.6 ! :thumbu2: That makes me happy. I'm pumped to go work out today now that I know I am officially minus freakin 70!! Now I'm anxious to be -80! lol. Well, hopefully when my bff comes next month I can be in the 210s. I can't believe I've lost seventy lbs. That's nuts. I think I am going to take more after pictures today and see if these turn out better.Oh well. I've already thought of a different after pic to put in the "after" spot cuz I'm sick of the one there now. Alright, I gotta get dressed! Be back later lovelies!

this pic is of me being bored/silly in STL with my lose skin on my arms. lol sorry, im fascinated by it!

Workout Epiphany
So today I was at the gym, and while I was stretching, a gospel song "Lovely Day" came on and I my emotional ass started getting teary! After I stretched to that song, I decided to listen to a few more inspirational jams and I learned something about myself. Before I started losing weight, I always had this sense of "poor me, feel bad for me." Now that I've lost the weight, I don't feel nearly as bad for myself and that has allowed me to empathize more and really feel for others. You can't truly care about others if you don't really care about yourself. Now that I do care about myself, I care about myself enough to put myself to the side and really feel for and be able to help others. I :heart2: being able to feel.

Anyways, my workout was FAB today. I did my 30 minutes on the Arc trainer and 30 minutes on the tready and i was so proud of myself. I jogged more than I walked, which is great for me. I :love: Saturday workouts.

Well, now it's shower time and then to wear some shorts I haven't worn since high school!! :thumbu2:

Thoughts of the day:
I am so grateful for everything I have in my life. It may not be perfect, but it is awesome. I have absolutely nothing to complain about: life could be tons worse.
