Before we get to today’s top news stories, I want to pause for a moment to say thank you.
Thank you to everyone who has offered words of support and encouragement to me as I begin my weight loss journey.
A few weeks ago I made the decision to take control of health, starting with my weight.
I haven’t made any drastic changes.
I still enjoy a big Jersey Mike’s sub every now and then.
But I did give up sodas, added more fruits and vegetables to my diet and started walking.
In less than a month, I have lost 22 pounds.
My best friend is also virtually working out with me in another state.
We encourage and challenge each other to keep going.
It helps to have a fitness partner if you’re considering beginning your own weight loss journey.
But sometimes you have to dig deep inside and muster up the strength to encourage yourself.
Check out the vlog I posted yesterday.
It’s a beautiful morning for a walk. It’s now day 12 and I’m up to 3 miles. 3 miles! I’m constantly challenging myself to keep pushing, to keep going, more and more. Last week I walked 1 mile. Now week two, I’ve gone much farther. I’ve almost finished week two. I’m really proud of myself. And again I’m so inspired by your overwhelming support and love. Thank you!
Thank you.
