*My boyfriend and I are both trying to lose weight, I’m looking to shed 10-15 pounds. He wants to lose 26 pounds. This conversation happened last night.*
My Boyfriend: Babe, guess what! Monday I weighed 215 pounds, today (2 days later) I weigh 211 pounds!
Me: Are you freaking kidding me? 4 pounds in 2 days and you haven’t gone to the gym? Just eaten better and walked more?!? Seriously??
Boyfriend: Yep. Life isn’t fair, is it?

A little perspective
I’ve been feeling down about my body lately. I know that I will forever be a work in progress, that I can never stop eating right or working out. But sometimes it is just exhausting, you know?
The photo on the left popped up on my Facebook memories today…from a night bowling with the Ocho crew. It seems like a lifetime ago. The one on the right is from Friday night with a different Ocho crew. I see so many differences in my face now, the least of which is the 150 pound weight loss. I see a happy girl, one who doesn’t let her weight and size determine her happiness. I see a genuine smile, because I’m having a great time with my friends. I see a healthy, active person who loves her life, family and friends.
Isn’t that just fabulous?
