10 down.....

so, check this out....im down just about 10 lbs! in about 1 1/2 weeks! yay! super happy about that. and my mom noticed today! that made my day. kell and i went to play tennis on friday night for our 'date night', and had a blast. and he noticed. was super excited about that, too. i actually havent been exercising. just been doing the whole portion control. and trying to eat better, but mostly just eating LESS. not starving myself by any means-just doing the correct portions of things. it takes 21 days to create a habit, once i get this down, then im gonna do the exercise. exercise comes pretty easy to me, because i enjoy doing it, so i decided to do things differently this time. eating is something i LOVE, so i wanted to try to 'fix' this first and then add the exercise. often times i try to do too many things at once, and then fail....like exercise and diet all at once-and then i peter out...my bff meg says the first place she loses weight is her fingers (funny i know), for me its my face-which is what my mom noticed, in my 'lovely' chubby cheeks :) . i have a round face, so its the first place i lose-and gain. but i noticed my fingers, too! my engagement ring has been spinning more. i dont want to be skinny. i like my latin curves. but....i do want to get rid of my muffin top i have recently gotten, and the tummy that i used to never have, tone up the ol' chicken flab on my arms (agh), oh-this list could go on forever, so ill just stop here.....*sigh*

BUT, i am proud of my starting progress! so, onward and upward!
