Reflection

wow. i have changed so much. i thought that this class was just going to be easy, but i was completely wrong. i thought i knew everything, but i didn't. and i still don't, but i'm willing to learn. i've learned that i am stronger than i think i am, and that i can do hard things if i put my mind to it. i was already very active to begin with, but i got to add even more exercise to my daily routine, and that is one thing i'm really grateful for. yes! i have reached my goal. i have become faster, and i have worked out almost everyday! after this course is over, i think i'm going to take a long break, but still stay in shape. when i get out of shape, i can't ever get back into it, so i'm going to stay in shape, but i definitely will take a break. ultimately, i will maintain my fitness plan. it's a good plan, and i've already gotten so far into the feel of it that i don't think i could ever let it go. so yes, i will keep on doing it.
thanks for reading.

Post Weight

at the beginning of the course, i weighed 146 pounds. currently, i weight 142. i don't feel disappointed at all. i went to the doctor a while ago, and they told me that my body was mainly muscle, and that i had almost no fat. sure having fat isn't bad, but it's not good when there's a lot of it. so i'm happy. thanks for reading.
