Re: Had to share...40 lbs. lost so FAR!!!!
Ummm...about the shirt being tucked in...not my best choice...I actually had a blazer on and took it off because it was so warm....BUT, let me tell ya, the fact that I can fit in those darned jeans (love those levis), zip them up WITHOUT LAYING ON THE BED
, and actually walk in them was a WONDERFUL feeling...
FYI, since I posted, I lost 5 more lbs...I'm down to 179...YES I DID weigh, reweigh, rereweigh, etc. to verify I'm under 180!!!!

Re: Had to share...40 lbs. lost so FAR!!!!
Thanks all for the kind words.
Hi Bren!!!
Shannon, unfortunately, I've found that there is nothing wonderful about 'having' to lose weight. I let myself get out of shape, out of hand, and spiralled out of control due to infertility issues. I take full responsibility for how I was. What is wonderful, I think, is the fact that I'm now taking control of my life, not letting food control me and my life.
I am the same person that I was at 260 lbs EXCEPT that I have more energy to keep up with my life. AND, I think that energy radiates into other aspects of my life as well. I have more stamina with my kids and home life. I have more energy to appreciate the good life we've built. I had more energy to get thru the 2 tumors I had removed in November and then again in August. I have more energy to enjoy meals out with my girlfriends.sigpicHeather, age 37
