For my benefit!

This post is more for myself but I thought I might as well post it here. But this is all about my journey of weight loss and what has come of it. The picture on the left was taken in June, and at that point I don't think I had really started to lose all that much weight. And the picture on the left is of me 30 pounds lighter, the pictures aren't at the same exact angle but pretty close, and I strategically wore the same shirt so I could see the difference.

Before this entire journey of losing weight I wasn't exactly a fan of myself, whenever I would look down and see this huge gut I would always think to myself "man, you are fat." Now when I look down I still see a pretty big gut but I know that I'm at least doing something about it. And I'm PROUD of myself, that's not something I could have said a few months ago! I work out somewhere between 2-4 days a week now. And I eat when I'm hungry (meaning two meals a day)

I went into the doctor a week ago to check in with all the medications I'm on just so she could make sure they were working, and then I got some lab work done. Well my tests came back and all were in the normal range! This is huge, way back in may when I first found out about PCOS and got a mile long list of tests done my liver functions were 3x what the normal should have been. Along with that my testosterone levels were a little high and they are also in the normal range now! This is all really exciting for me. I know I have a long way to go before I reach a "normal" weight for a girl my size, but I'm not pushing it, I feel like it'll come eventually and getting there will take time and I'm willing to wait I guess!
