12 pounds down…46 more to go
April 6, 2008 heathersfeathers
I have to admit, I really didn’t have a whole lot of faith in myself when it came to losing weight. I’ve tried, and failed, many times in the last 3 years. I just kept putting on the weight. Well, NO MORE!!! So I’ve lost 12 pounds, and I’m so incredibly proud of myself. I still have 46 more to go to reach my goal weight, but for the first time ever it actually feels like a real possibility. I finally believe in myself enough to know that I can make it happen. I guess I just needed that first 10 or so pounds to really get me going. Now I’m not saying it will be easy, I know it won’t…but I know that it’s possible.
I’ve been reading another guy from Texas’ blog, and he’s lost quite a bit of weight, too. He’s really an inspiration, not to mention a total goofball and really funny. Cute too. You know me, I’m always checking out the cute boys. If you’d like to check out his blog click here.
In other great news, my Dad went to court with my nieces mom again this week. WE FINALLY GET TO SEE HER MORE!! The judge in this case has been wonderful since day one. Very reasonable. We get her overnight every other weekend, and once a month we get to take her to North Carolina to visit her Daddy (my brother) since he’s in the military. We are so happy. I’d like to think everyone for their thoughts and prayers. It truly has been a battle to get this far and unfortunately, I’m afraid it will be a battle most of my niece’s life for us to play an active role in her life. It’s sad really, we are her family and we have to fight to see her. But dangit, fight we will. We love that little girl so freaking much, it’s totally worth it!!
I recently had my 24th birthday, and it was a blast! I have some of the most amazing friends and I’m so thankful for each and every one of them. Ashley and Nick got me a beautiful, amazing cake.
One of my sorority sisters is designing cakes now and she did a beautiful job. Thanks Heidi!
We all met up for dinner at Esparza’s and had a blast. Their margaritas are on a whole nother level. hehe Then we went out to Ft. Worth to party it up. Ended up at some bar I had never been to called Aqua lounge. It was pretty neat minus the fact that the bar tender needed to be schooled a little bit.
