On this #throwbackthursday I want to take a trip down memory lane

In this photo here I am zip lining in a jungle in Costa Rica. I was about 4 months into my weight loss journey & on my 4th trip of the year as part of my “eat, pray, love” experience

At this point I had lost maybe 30 pounds. See what I did was I would reward myself with trips. So anytime I had a trip planned, my goal was to lose another 10-15 lbs before it so I could feel better about my photos while on said trip!

So we fly @southwestair to #CostaRica & spend 5 glorious days in paradise

We went into the town of #tamarindo and spent all day on the beach. We ate amazing lobster, got a massage at sunset, attempted to learn to surf & met locals who showed us the secret spots for food AND we are still friend with them on social media!

So on the 2nd to last day of our trip we decided to do an all day excursion. It included horseback riding, white water tubing, zip lining & a hike into a mountain to get to hot springs!

We woke up at the crack of dawn to take a 2 hour bus ride to the site of where this was all going down & I quickly realized how uncomfortable I was

Aaaaaand my thoughts proved to be right, I felt like I was too heavy to be doing some of these activities and I quickly became nervous & scared

I had never been zip lining before & surely not 100 feet up in the air in a jungle!

But you know what? I did it all anyways. I came all this way to fail? NO!

At the end of all of our activities I was SO BEAT UP! Everything on my body hurt & I couldn’t believe I was capable of doing all of those physically grueling activities at that current weight

I remember feeling a flood of emotions come over me & in that moment I knew I could accomplish ANYTHING I put hard work into

Fast forward to a total of 70 pounds lost & many more to go. This is my @southwestair travel story! ❤️❤️❤️

Where should I reward myself with next?!
