How Far Have I Come?

I get my assessment done on Thursday. How far have I come in the last 12 weeks during this challenge? I’m nervous…what if I’m disappointed in my results? Will it be another stumbling block for me? I’m trying to mentally prepare myself, so I don’t get into a funk, if the numbers don’t match what I would like.
Either way, I’m plugging on. I’ll continue this journey and go as long as it takes to get me to the end. My visits to the gym aren’t going away anytime soon. In fact, I’m at 3x a week through the rest of April and May. I’ll be back at 2x a week for the summer, since I have a busy schedule.
Technically, I’m done having to keep a food journal to bring in. I talked to Danielle (my trainer) about it, and she said that regardless, it’s important to keep journaling for myself. It’s easy to fall out of pattern, not keep track, and next thing you know….you’re gaining weight, because you cut corners. Write it down, get used to it….it’s a tool to keep me on track.
I’m going to bring some of that journaling here. This way, I have a record of what I’m doing, along with accountability. I don’t plan on writing my daily eats here each day, I’ll do that on a small journal I have at my desk. I will post each week how I’m doing, if I had challenges and so forth.
Today, I feel like I’m inching closer to normal. (My mindset of normal, not normal by any one else’s standards, since we all have our own). I don’t want to stand out as “the biggest person” in a room. To me, normal means blending, fitting in, not being obviously larger than everyone else. What’s your idea of normal?
