    Yay! Just had to celebrate!

    I'm just so happy! I finally got past that five pounds I was stuck around and lost another 7 and now I'm officially at a 40 pound loss for my 6th week weigh in!! My clothes were so tight when I started that I still can't tell a big difference...but I will eventually! I'm just happy. I keep looking at the bag of Dog food I got for my dog that's 40 pounds and think "THAT is gone from me!!!!".
    I just sort of want to cry....I've been working so hard and it's been so hard at times but I'm doing it and I'm just so glad.

    I just had to tell someone!!!!

    It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




    I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

          Fantastic! Wonderful shrinkage! Isn't it amazing when you look at something physical that weighs what you've lost and know that you aren't carrying that around any more! Keep those sacks of dog food around... amazing incentive!

            Jen -

            I am sooooooooooo HAPPY for you that I just might cry too. I know how dedicated you are to doing this for yourself - and that in itself inspires me - to keep trying to be a healthier me too!! Thank you so much for your help and support (and patience) with me during the past few weeks - just remember, although I am ridiculously busy and not always "here" I AM here with you, and cheering you on every step, skip and jump of the way.

            I just wanted you to know how proud I am of you - and blessed to call you not only "a friend" but an extremely dear friend.

                  Thank you all!! I'm just, ahh! Still so happy! When I feel like this I'm so much more motivated!

                  Elisabeth - thank you. You did make me cry! You are so sweet and I'm just as thankful and blessed to have you. You talk about me being there for you, but ya know...you've had so much to do with me staying strong also. Knowing you are there has meant so much to me.

                    2. Use bike more (3x per week would be nice).
                    3. Continue with videos.
                    4. Go to the YMCA for water classes.

                    Goals for May:
                    1. Water every day - at least 100 oz.
                    2. Walk through Wal Mart instead of ride.
                    3. Post every day.
                    4. Get the exercise bike out of basement and use it!
