Pounds lost since last weigh-in: ---
Goal Weight: 125-130 lbs.

You know what's funny? Even though I gained nearly a pound this week, I am not as upset as I would have been.
I think I have almost reached a point of acceptance with my body. Not contentment -- but acceptance. I sneak glances of myself in the mirror or in glass fronts at stores and I am pretty happy with the way that I look. I know that I may not ever have a body like Sofia Vergara unless I paid for it, and you know what? I'm fine with that. I've got this body and for all the things that have ailed it -- broken bones, scoliosis, etc -- it has still carried me through for 27 years.
I may not have treated this body the way it deserved, but I'm working on it now. I try to eat in moderation, try to be healthy, without going overboard. I have cheat days and I have nights where I'm eating cookies past bedtime, but I don't overindulge. I've pushed my body to its limits and have watched it lose unhealthy, unwanted, unneeded pounds. I have never been as proud of my body as I am now.
I will continue to work-out, to treat my body well, because it's still got a long life ahead.

I've decided to change the name of my Sunday Weigh-Ins to Sunday Check-In. I'm still hoping to get my weight between 125-130, but at 131, I'm pretty happy, too. So, instead of Weigh-In, it will be a Check-In.
Have a great week, everyone! I'm off to (maybe) do some cleaning and then get my exercise back on track!
