Week 12 Birthday weigh in challenge (with video log)

When I weighed in on Thursday - i was creeping closer and closer to my birthday goal.

Friday, even closer.  but i wasn't sure if it was going to be close enough!!!

I started to prepare my heart for just not making my birthday goal - and I'm glad that I did.

As I started to really think about this journey - I started to think... its only been 12 weeks.  I still have a long way to go to reach my Healthy Wage goal - and even longer to reach my ULTIMATE goal, and it's not about hitting a specific number each week.  It's about the overall journey.

And I was really kinda impressed with my attitude.  My family can tell you - I can get obsessed over weight issues SUPER quick!!!  But I was really ok with whatever was going to be on the scale for Saturday.  I mean - I knew I worked hard and I gave it my all, and I was thinking - you know - Sunday is my birthday.  I shouldn't be freaking out about my weight on my birthday.  Why don't I just get my weight for Saturday like I've been doing (mostly)  and if I don't hit it - i'll for SURE hit it next Saturday.

I'm really happy with my contentment.  and that was a huge breakthrough to have that peace BEFORE looking at the scale.  The trick was going to be still having that peace even after I saw the number on the scale.

So here's my video for week 12!  Thanks for all the encouragement I've been getting from you all!  It's been super sweet and uplifting!
