It’s my birthday!
24 baby!
My 24th year is going to be awesome!
Happy Birthday to me!

I’m digging the way my clothes are fitting lately. They are fitting how they should…loosely. :) No gym today….had to get my butt up early and drive across town to vote on the primary (because I’m dumb and never updated my address). So that took up my whole morning before work. Think I’m going to try and get to the gym tonight if I don’t have to stay late at work. Other than that, my eating is still fantastic. But, they scale is hardy moving. Frustrating…yes. But hopefully all the bloodwork I had done yesterday can give me some insight and some answers. Keeping my fingers crossed. Hope everyone has a happy and healthy day! xoxo
Hanging out at the beach bars w/ my old college roomies!Good times!
Burning a heck of a lot of calories dancing!! Bar hopping is even more fun sober! haha :)
Girls Night Out!
Loving my cold weather outfit tonight.
Dinner out at Cantina Laredo & heading out to the beach bars. I ate the chicken fajitas with no tortillas, and veggies instead of beans and rice. And I boxed half before I started eating.
Yayy for being healthy when eating out! :)
I Am Doing This For Me.
I want to be proud of myself & feel good about myself.
I am finally doing something just for me! Not for any one else, but for ME!
I am not doing this to please other people, but to please me.
This is all about me & all for me.
This Florida girl is loving the cold weather!!
It’s nice to not be sweating in January! I can wear long sleeves and scarves!
The little things make me happy!
I’m in such a good mood today despite being at work.

Heading to church with the family. The Christmas Eve candlelight service is always my favorite thing about Christmas! Love it.
Being the best possible ME.
I have come to realize that for once in the many times that I have tried to lose weight in my life, I am actually 100% doing this for myself this time. I will totally admit that the last few times have been for silly reasons like: “I need to look good for guys to like me” or “I need to make (insert name) like me now.” Yep, I was totally being that person that was losing weight to convince myself that I then would be “good enough” for some silly boy that I liked or just good enough in general. I never believed that I was ever good enough for anyone or for anything that I wanted to do.
Well, ladies and gentleman, that is not that the case for me anymore. For once, I truly do not care what others think about me. I am truly, 100% doing this all for me. I want to be the healthiest & happiest Courtney that I can be. I am losing weight so that I can one day I can reach all of my personal goals. I am losing weight so that I can look and feel the healthiest I possibly can. I love the person that I have become over the last year and I can’t wait to see where life is going to take me. This time around everything feels a lot different and it’s great to know that I am doing this all for myself and for no one else.
And because I am in this all for me, I have realized that it seems easier and more natural this time around. I truly want this for myself, so therefore I do not feel like I am restricting myself at all. I have the urge to eat healthy and be healthy, not to eat junk and eat just to eat. This is completely new territory for me, but I love it! I want this so bad. I will reach my goals.
This is MY life and I am going to live it MY way.
I’m super duper proud of myself!
I turned down drinks, fried food, and sweets galore tonight! I’m now doing what I want to do…relax, watch a movie, and sip hot chocolate.
It’s a great feeling to put yourself first and do what you want and what is best for yourself.
