yadz Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I started graduate school overseas in England (just got here a week and a half ago) I lost 60 pounds I can run 4 miles without stopping (though I do have to slow down when the road goes uphill) I can do actual pushups (though not many) I am honest-to-goodness proud of myself. Every single achievement on this list is something that I worked for months, and even years, without rest to accomplish. As I was running today, my first run on English soil, I was thinking about how me from 2 months ago wouldn't have been able to keep up for even a quarter of a mile. Whenever I meet a new person I feel confident in myself, and I know that they're not looking at me like "the fat American." All the sweat, all the frustration, every rejected pizza and cookie, I can't even tell you how worth it it is. I still want to lose about 40 pounds, but I'm not worried about it, I can take my time and enjoy the journey now. Quote Link to comment
