    I am so happy...

    I met my End of September goal!!!!

    Now, I am not one to post every little success, but dang it I am so happy that I achieved this goal. As some of you know, I went off Atkins last year, gained some weight, then went back on in February, then pooo...broke my leg and severely sprained my other ankle. I couldn't adequately start up again, when I couldn't even walk, so I gained some more. After most healing took place, I went back on Atkins in April and vowed to never, ever, lose my mind again and return to that disasterous way of eating. In April, I weighed 255lbs (I am coming clean, I think in a previous post I posted a lower number due to total embarrassment) and I was so depressed that I allowed myself to gain all that weight back (I was down to 214lbs in August 2005).

    Well....it's ALL GONE now!!! Well, ok, need to lose one more pound, but that's ok. I am now looking to the (hopefully near) future when I achieve my onderland passport!

    Anyway, I am really happy today! Oh, and on Saturday morning I weighed 219lbs, so I had a massive whooshie!

    No Weigh Until Christmas Day!!!

      Thanks Miss Phode! I love your Boston Terrier. I also have a Boston, they are great dogs. Margaret is a bit on the "off" side, but she is still a sweetie.

            Way to go!!!!!!!!!!! I did that too but I went off way back in later part of 2003. Took all this time to get back on track after many failed attempts. Just now getting back to the weight I was before I got pregnant and fell off the wagon. Now I am looking forward to losing even more and breaking past that point of where I was before.

              Thank you, ladies! I am walking on air today, I didn't think I would make my September goal at all.

              @Cheryl: You CAN do it, look, you got to the 200's (I was happy to see those), you WILL get down there. My goal weight is 175 too, let's do it!

                Thanks G-Mom. I just love Bostons. You'll have to post a pic of Margaret someday. I bet she's a doll.
