Throughout all of Britney Spears‘ dramatic — and occasionally traumatic — ups and downs, the one thing that’s always been there for her is Starbucks. No matter her mood or where she goes in the world, the pop superstar always seems to be picking up a caffeine pick-me-up of some sort.

My Lumps

Since January, I have officially lost 20 pounds!

I have learned that fad diets do not work for the long term. If you really want to lose the weight, then you have to get yourself to the gym and chose better options when you eat, period.

The picture above shows one pound of pure fat. No wonder it takes so long to lose weight! That thing is monstrous! I got my body fat percentage measured and I lost a little over six of those lumps! It is so nice to know that is off of my body, but I still have a lot of work to do. I was confused when I lost only six pounds of fat and my trainer told me it is because we also lose water weight when we lose fat because our bodies store water in our fat cells. Interesting!

I am very happy with my results so far. My goal for the year was 30 pounds, so I am only 10 pounds away from that! YAY for me! Next year I will be celebrating my goal of reaching my ideal weight. I am so glad I invested the time to take car of myself. It is never too late!
