I have to start today by telling you I went to a water park. Yes, I was not really happy with the idea of being on a swimming suit. I still have a lot of weight to lose before I get to the ideal weight. And I do not feel comfortable by the pool. But, something happened. I saw a group of friends I had not seen for a while and they pointed that I was looking great, that they could see the weight loss, etc. Oh yeah, people notices. That was really good for my self esteem. I still wore a cover up, but I felt happier with how things are going.

I really did not behave at eating. I went to a Colombian restaurant to celebrate an early birthday (during the week I will be at work), and I eat more than I should. But you know what? It was my treat for my birthday and I will behave this week with my eating plan.

I got injured. I have been able to walk (limping) but I cannot jog/run. I need to find something that is good for cardio that does not have a heavy impact on my knee (I dislocated my patella). So if you have any ideas, please let me know.

My goals for the week: more water, find a way to be active without pain on my knee and not falling into temptation for birthday treats. Wish me luck on the last one (wink)

How was your week? Any victories?

Thanks for reading!

It's your birthday so you can eat what you want :) I still wear board shorts when I go to the pool. I just think bathing suits are for barbie doll sized women with no kids!

I was wondering about the pic of you in clothes with some of the Columbian flag around. Happy early birthday! Sorry about your knee. What about the recumbent stationary bike? My other option is to mention the pool and an aqua jogger but it would mean a lot more swimsuit time.

I vote that it's your birthday and you should do what you'd like. :) But great job on getting to the point where others notice. Isn't that awesome?!

Isn't it great when others notice your weight loss? And, it's definitely ok to treat yourself on your birthday!
