Peace and Progress
So I haven't blogged in about a week but it's because so much has been going on. I finally have time to sit down and report my progress to my followers, who I would like to thank for your support. So last Tuesday October 5th I weighed myself, drumrole please.......... and I lost...............8lbs!!!!! Yay I know, progress. I had an awesome week with friends and family once again. This weekend kind of reminded me that staying quiet or being shut is not always a bad thing. Sometimes your the bigger person, or you're better off just staying shut and taking everything with a grain of salt. I think life is a lot less complicated when you just chill, and aren't defensive about everything. Sometimes the battle that you think you're fighting is not with everyone else but with yourself. I went to the city and spent an amazing weekend with my oldest niece Ashley and her friends from UMASS Amherst, it was really nice. I haven't done that much walking in such a long time. I wieghed myself today again, and I lost 3 lbs this week. So in total I have lost 13lbs. If you've read my blogs you know that my goal is to lose 12-13 lbs a month and for this month I actually did an ok job. As for Insanity, I didn't continue doing it because I am physically unfit and need to get into some type of shape before I attempt to do it again. I've been completely stressed with school work and some other rsponsibilities and roles that I play. But I have managed to make the best out of it, and follow my eating plan as closely as I can. There isn't much else to say but thank you, and keep following me. Until next time.

Family, friends and food.
So for the most part I am completely proud of myself, I have changed my eating habits. I am starting to get used to eating less. But it happened, after a day filled with laughter my evening didn't end so well, and I binge ate yesterday!!!!! UGHHHH!!!!!!! FRUSTRATION!!!!! I was doing so well and managed to take a step backward instead of forward. There's no excuses, but I won't beat myself up over it because then I'll just continue to screw up. I had a setback but now I'm moving forward. I won't let this deter me. For the most part I had a great weekend with family and friends. I am able to say that this weekend I managed to experience the true meaning of family. From the moment the weekend started to the moment it finished.
Family and Friends
In this portion of my blog I want to talk about family and friends. Not just any family and friends, my amily and friends, my support group. My number one supporter, who hasn't had the pleasure of reading my blogs because she doesn't know how to work a computer yet, is my mother. The inspiration, motivation and encouragement she instills in me is the push that allows me to continue with anything I ever set out to do. She supports me in all my decisions whether she agrees with them or not, and her love is unconditional. So thank you Mom, te quiero mucho. My beautiful big sister, she is definitely my motivation, and she is always supportive of me. Especially on my decision to take this journey. To my sister, you are awesome and I thank god I have someone like you supporting me. My brother Steven although I'm not sure he's read my blog, he has always supported any of my weightloss endeavors and I love him for that. He showed me that anything is possible as long as you work for it. To my cousin Jackie congratulations on your weightloss and yes we must support each other through our journey. Thank you for the support and you definitely have mine. And I want to thank the people who have actually been going through my journey with me on a daily basis. They see my struggles, and try to help by being there and letting me know that it is possible to achieve my goal if my heads in the right place, my chapter brothers are awesome, specifically my LB's Josh and Andrew. Thank you guys for your encouragement and support. And to Jessica thank you for being supportive, I greatly appreciate it. Everyone else who has read my blog, thank you for being a part of my journey.
