     Firstly, I want to thank everyone who gave their feedback on my last post. After sleeping on it, I decided not to ask for the prescription. To be honest, I’m afraid of some of the side effects and my body is a weird one. It does not take medication well…it’s one of the reason I try to stay herbal or ride it out. I wouldn’t want, 10 years from now, I look good but my heart is so weak due to pills I was taking…I’ve already jeopardize my system from being overweight and a smoker for 10 years, do I really need to add more crap?! Anyways, it got me thinking that I should post a “what I’ve accomplished so far” to help me through the next couple of months:

1. It’s offically 3 weeks that I’ve been working out 5 days a week for 30 mins….
2. I eat breakfast every morning, even when I’m late, I make time for breakfast….I was notorious for skipping breakfast.
3. I drink a glass of skimmed milk every day…I’m lactose intolerant and there’s this brand called Lactaid, the milk taste delicious and I’m getting use to it.
4. I’m starting to take more interest in my appearance…and this is important. I think I needed to get that idea out of my head, you know the one, when I lose this amount of weight I shall do this or that….now, it’s I’m going to look good at any size because I’m a work in progress…I see myself as in renovation, yes, I’m comparing myself to a home…I love renovation…HGTV is my favorite channel ….okay side tracked again…
5. I’ve lost 3.6 lbs and I’ve kept it off…..it may seem a small amount but if I lose 3.6 pounds every month, in 10 months I will be 30 pounds ligther and over that 10% fat loss marker, which means there will be a significant drop in my heart work load, blood pressure and respiration…..

                So I’m not doing too badly. March 19th shall be one month that I’ve been on here and I’m actually proud of what I’ve accomplish. There are great people on here who help me to succeed( readers like you and my faithful buddies), a determine leader, April , who would not take no for an answer:)(Go Heartbreakers)…. and a great boyfriend who supports me, even when I’m being bad:)….remember the good things people ….now I feel pumped, off to the Treadmill…..Skinny Vibes…everyone
