All Signs Point to YES!

Posted in My Weight-Loss Journey by Rachel

Had an amazing time celebrating with friends on Wednesday. Drank and ate upwards of 2,500 calories (est. daily total), but one cannot pass up birthday cake straight from the North End! Leaving half my meal was definitely a good decision. Got the ‘you look good comment’ and knew what it meant. Also got the ‘…and happy!’ follow up. Is it that noticeable (..the happiness)? Answer: YES.

Will be catching a concert tonight after work with my friend Cassie before heading up to Methuen to spend the night in her new apartment. Tomorrow will be divided between hitting the gym, helping her move the last of her belongings, and partying at her b-day shin-dig. What is up with all of these Summer babies? Cancers and Leos scare me!!

I cannot tell you how excited I am to be going to the gym tomorrow morning before starting our day. The best part? It wasn’t even my idea! Cassie has been doing really, really well. I can’t wait to see her. She has lost 22lbs since the end of June. I am amazed — truly!!

Have a great weekend everyone!

  • Wow that’s awesome! That compliment must have felt great. I can’t wait to get that second look from people again. And your friend is doing so good! That is amazing progress. She will be ready in no time for the 10k

What the…?


This is my journey to lose 121 lbs one calorie, one blog post, one tweet, and one workout at a time! No foods are off limits, moderation is a must, and calorie intake/expenditure is key.
