    Ok, I usually don't but ...

    I have been visited by the woooshie fairy!

    I usually never do this but I have to do a little bit of bragging. I am down another two pounds!! I am down to 175.5, and I can hardly believe it. About a month ago I was at 186 and now I am down 10 pounds in 1 month!!! How is that even possible, lol, I am so not questioning it, just totally enjoying it.

    I feel so great today, you know a year ago I never would have thought it was possible but here I am in my new size 12 jeans, I feel fantastic! I really hope this continues, I want to be at 165 soon, it would be so cool if I could be at goal by June. I graduate then too, plus the wedding, so it would be a perfect combination of all three achievments.

    Anyway, sorry for being stuck on myself, I am just so excited!

              Awww thanks guys! I work hard, not as hard as some, but hard for me. It's nice to see the results for the effort I put into my program. I love Atkins, and the hope I feel of one day getting to goal. Wait, not hope, CERTAINTY!!

              Thanks for the bragging ladyinred, lol.

              Betty - you are so sweet, thanks, that means a lot coming from a running maniac, lol.

              Thanks Lisa and Sally - I hope to be releasing more fat here soon, lol. I know I shouldn't be gready but I really want the wooshie fairy to stick around a little longer.
