Arashi Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Today I faced the scales at the drugstore and almost didn't believe it. And then I went to another drugstore because, well, i didn't believe it. Both marked 77 kg. That's five kilos (11 pounds) less than in the beginning of the year!!!I though it would be so hard to lose the extra weight, but so far, I'm not finding it nearly as taxing, difficult, and unpleasant as I should. Sure, there are difficult moments - resisting all the chocolate on Easter will certainly be one of them. But it is so worth it.Since the beginning of the challenge, I added the Angry Birds workout to my Pilates class and I do some yoga once a week when I have the time. Not getting so stressed is also helping - last year I was incredibly stressed with work and some personal problems, and this year I vowed to not care so much about things that I cannot change, and work hard but not get obsessed with work and classes.And I have to say that NF is really helping me find what is right for me when it comes to dieting and working out. Coming here help me get inspired and motivated, and it's nice to find other people facing the same challenges and being so nice. I really really have to thank you guys.20 more kilos to go!
