Results Not Typical

This week, after a week of battling a sinus infection, I reached another milestone.  I hit the 25 pounds lost mark.  When we reach goals, our leader always asks us what's working, what's different, etc.  This time she asked how long it has taken me. 

It's only been 12 weeks. 

If you ask me what 12 weeks feels like normally, I'll tell you it feels like a long time.  On this journey, it feels like it was just yesterday that I joined.  There are days when I can't believe the number that's on the scale.  I never thought I would see it again. 

My leader was quick to mention that "my results weren't typical."  I guess I never realized how well this whole thing was working until she said that.  If I'm being honest, nothing has worked this well.

Then again, I've never wanted something more than I do this change.  I want to be healthy, eat healthy and be an example for my girls.  If I have to buy smaller clothes in the process, I'm okay with that too.
