Even a little is something

I got a gym membership about 18 months ago. I used it faithfully until my children's taekwondo schedule changed and effectively killed my motivation.  I wasn't really seeing results anyway.  I spiraled downhill. About October, the thought of getting back into the gym started playing in my mind again.  In December, I did it.  I went.  And then I got sick.  Hooray because that took a week off of my plans and I was afraid I'd lose that motivation again.  I got well and went back.  I don't know that I had any real goals beyond something had to change and that something was me.

I'm the person who needs to see some results in order to keep going.  I was looking, trying on skirts, measuring...seemingly in vain.  But, one great morning, I put a skirt on fresh from the dryer and it was loose.

Then, I took measurements and saw just how much things had changed that I hadn't noticed really in the short time.  I put a skirt on Sunday morning that almost fell off.  I was disappointed only in that I had my heart set on wearing that one.

I'm sure that this is just a teaser and that I have a lot of work ahead of me, but I'll take anything I can get.
