Okay, so I am going to put this out there, and risk people bringing me down...but I really don't care. I'm making myself accountable, to reach my goals, and what better way to do that, then to let everyone know?! As SOME of you may know - I have always had this DREAM about becoming a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader. I mean, what girl in Texas never thought about it?! If you didn't - you're crazy, or secretly a man. ;) Anyway, I have been watching the DCC tryouts on CMT lately, and I am soooo ready to get into the shape I need to be in to try out. I am not 100% sure that I can get where I need to be physically, or fluidly (I'm not THAT kind of dancer)....but, it's worth a shot. I want to at least make it to the auditions. Just so I can say that - Hey, I tried out to be a part of DCC. Maybe one day I will be able to say that I AM a part of DCC. I know I am running out of time - because there aren't too many that can say that they were a cheerleader for Dallas Cowboys after the age of 30... :)
I am going to be doing research, and trying to get some choreography down and start dancing again. Definitely, I need to get to where I can run - because lets face it...they have a LOT of energy, and they dance A LOT!!
So, that's out in the open, I hope that everyone will be just as supportive with this goal, and they are with my weightloss - especially since now they are going hand in hand...
Anyway, on a side note, I weighed again, and I am now down 8 pounds from my original starting weight, and 13 pounds from my "heaviest" weight, since starting my journey! I'm pretty proud of myself, but I am not "seeing" the results outside of the scale. I still feel like you can't tell that I have lost weight. I recently had my Aunt and Mom (who are AMAZING photographers, By the Way) take pictures of me and my kiddos. I was really confident going into it, but now that I have the actual pictures to look at, I realize that I haven't come as far as I thought I had. :(
I will try to add my newest pictures (no "body" shots just yet...) soon, so you can see what I mean, but for now, just know that I am really struggling with body image right now, and really hope that this passes - soon.
You may think u look big but u don't! You look awesome! Don't put yourself down! I'm in the same boat but MUCH bigger than u! And its awesome to have a goal! It helps u meet your weight loss goal! Keep up the good work :)
