So here’s to us.

Here’s to ordering a salad when YOU really want a burger. To making an ass out of ourselves in cardio hip-hop class. To drinking more water than seems humanly possible. To going five more minutes on the elliptical. To working out twice as much as your skinny roommate.

To say “Screw you” to the old YOU. To falling in love with the YOU who YOU want to become. To looking in the mirror and not seeing any change, throwing on your running shoes and working out anyways. To looking in the mirror and seeing major change.

Here’s to carrots, and sweaty t-shirts, and perseverance, and all things fat-free, and sore muscles, and stinky socks, and 7am, and spin classes, and falling down, and getting back up, and bottled water.

Here’s to getting up every day and doing it all over again.

Here’s to us.
