Since Summer School is over, I have some time to do for myself. Well, I finally decided to update my blog: Diet – Day 75-Day 116. I have lost 22 lb. so far though I cheated a lot. It has been so slow to accomplish my goal and frustrating every single day, but I keep doing what I need to do. My guess is that I will reach my goal around holiday this year. (all depends on how I go through holiday season).
This update doesn’t sound fun to read through because less pictures and limited topic, but it still tells me the story of my diet, and it’s very, very important for me to look at myself. It’s so hard for me to realize who I am. But, this is me. I need to accept it.

Well, I didn’t really weigh myself last week, because of my excess eating. Today, I did weigh, total weight loss is 20 lb. so far. Very, very, very slow. It’s obvious that cheating reflects how much weigh I can lose per week. I know that, but I guess I haven’t been able to commit that I need to lose more weight faster.
