So I’ve posted on the past about my current journey. I went through a really ugly beak up last year and it really kick started a new life for me. I know this all sounds so cliche and lame but it really did help me a lot. I made it my goal to get back in shape and drop the excess weight I was carrying around. I decided to do this while trying to get back into the Air Force. I have been focused on my son and my workouts only. Everything else has not been a priority and I’m glad for that. I know what I want and how I’m going to get it and I haven’t been letting anyone or anything get in my way. For the past month I’ve been maintaining the weight standard I need to adhere to in order to re enlist. I was waiting on clearance from medical professionals because of a knee injury incurred over 18 years ago that they already knew about. It was very frustrating and very annoying to be left in the dark as I waited to be told whether or not I was cleared. Last Tuesday I finally got the call and I’m going to begin the medical screening process to get back into the Air Force next Monday. I am beyond excited as I know it’s going to go well and I’m going to get back in. It’s a dream of mine and I can’t wait to make a better life for my son and me. He deserves the best and deserves a dad who can be there and provide for him the way he needs.
It hasn’t all been good though. My ex who cheated on me last year continues to pop up and contact me about life and seeing how I’m doing even though she’s dating the guy she cheated on me with. I don’t fully understand her reasonings but I think she just feels bad about hurting me and my son and is trying to show me that she’s constantly hurting as well, as if that someone how is supposed to make me feel better. I forgave her for what she did but it still hurts. I’m not in the business of hurting anyone or wanting anyone hurt. I just want to live my life and move forward. I hope things get better….
here’s a couple of progress pictures so show where I’m at with my weight loss and workout.
