End of Year Start Up

I was going to title this post “End of the Year Wrap-Up” but decided that, I’m actually in the mess of beginning a lot of things. I’m slow to start, but when I do I go deep. Today is Christmas Eve and although, I haven’t been working like crazy all day, I have been very productive.

First of all, I finally edited and posted my YouTube Intro Video

Then, I did some other editing but that will be posted at a later date. Spring semester (college) does not begin until 1/6 so I’m on a winter break right now and am using my holiday to get sorted out.

I wanted to do a check-in with my goals. My current big ones are posting videos on YouTube, learning adobe premiere pro (even from my crappy computer), and launching a program for my non-profit.

The other big thing that is ALWAYS on my mind is losing weight. Why is that always on my mind? I was really focused on fat percentage lost but I just think the weight is easier to track. Fat percentage keeps hanging in the same spot and my weight fluctuates. I’ve been keeping a spreadsheet on Google Sheet about my weigh in but I haven’t seen much progress. Also, I’ve been a little social butterfly recently.

So this is the part I hate, sharing any sort of progress photo publicly. Guess what though, it works for motivation:

Before

After 12 weeks of not so serious dieting, I’ve lost like 4lbs and am about the same in body fat percentage. I’m ready to kick it up a notch though, I started a best self Facebook Group about keeping each other accountable, being an outlet to curse, feel defeated and get back up again. It is also a group where you can share your wins with other women and have them cheer you on for your hard work. Because it is hard work.

I’m going to go harder now to reach my goals. Again, I’m a slow starter. Winter solstice is done, and it is time to pick up speed. Progress coming in about a week.
