Okay,

I believe I've broken past the mental barrier that was blocking my openness to reach past that 30 lb. mark. I'm ready to forge that stream! There are times when your head has to catch up to your body in terms of processing the progress you've made, and readying itself for new territory. I believe that when the head, the heart and the body are all in sync, you can't go wrong. So, we're all on board, and ready for new adventures. I try not to put too much pressure on myself to lose weight in a specific amount of time. I tell myself that 5 lbs. a month is reasonable, and if I lose less than that, it's usually a signal that I have stalled out, and need to reassess some things. I may not quite get there in September. I knew the 30 lb. mark would be a doozie. I put on my armor, and I believe I've won the staring contest with the 30 lb. giant. HE WILL COME TUMBLING DOWN!!
