Day #125 - It's Side Shot Day Again!!!!

What's up my friends!!! Today was a very uneventful day. I mentioned in yesterday's post, that I got in from my event in Rochester, NY at 6:00 am this morning. I had, once again, gone almost 24 hours without sleep twice in the same week. So you can only imagine what time I wanted to sleep into today. Unfortunatley, I was woken up at 10 am by work and had to roll out of bed to do several things before I got a chance to relax for a change. Anyway, I managed to get everything done that needed to be done for work. I also helped Patty straighten up the apartment, go food shopping for the week, and executed my workout routine for today. And I did all this, looking and feeling like a zombie.

However, I do have some exciting news for you all today....... it is Side Shot Day!! Well, technically yesterday was, but I was on the road the whole day and was too tired to do that this morning at 6am. If you just started following this blog, let me catch you up to speed. At the beginning of every month, I like to take a side photo of myself and then I compare it to the side shot of the previous month, as well as Day #1 of my mission. It switches the photos up a little and shows you a different perspective of how my body has changed over the last few months by doing nothing but eating healthy and exercising constantly. Let me know what you think of this special addition of side shot day.

Today, Day #125 - 247.6 lbs

1 Month Ago, Day #94 - 255.2 lbs

Day #1 - 302 lbs

I don't know about anyone else, but it makes me happy and extremely motivated when I can see positive results. It also reminds me how hard I have worked to get this far. Just imagine how much better I will look and feel by the time my wedding day is here (10 months & 23 days away).  I also want to show everyone my front shot comparison from Day #1 to today as well.
