    I'm OWNING it!!! My ONEderland!!

    Finally, finally, finally!! I finally hit ONEderland on the scale and it's for real!! Not just a dying battery in the scale!

    I think the last time I was in ONEderland was 2002 and that wasn't on purpose. My father was dying of a brain tumor and I think I fed him more than I fed myself then.

    Went grocery shopping last night...walked down the refrigerated aisle lined with all those glass doors. I saw my reflection in the glass and thought, "D*mn, you look really good. REALLY, really good!!" I used to avoid reflections. Maybe I'll invest in some more mirrors! I'm glad I was the only one on that aisle because I took in a few eyefuls and that would've freaked a stranger out!!

    I bought just over a pound of New York strip steak so I've been celebrating with that....late dinner and then some for breakfast. I've missed steak!! I need a part time job so I can enjoy some better cuts of meat!!

    I'd say this is definitely a motivator. Now I want to get so far away from the 190's that I never see 200 again....ever. No matter what!

    I bought a stereo last night....let the dancing begin...

          Ev, congrats girl! It's been a loooong road, but we are finally here together. 199.8 this morning. Don't worry about the better cuts of meat so much. I eat pork shoulder steaks a couple of times a week. They are about $0.75 each. Just marinate them for two days in McCormick Grill Mate's Southwest Marinade, and you will have a great piece of meat. They are the absolute cheapest cut of meat I can find. I used to be a porterhouse/rib eye guy, and I find these to be quite tasty.

Being fit and feeling on top of our game will ensure that we're there for the people who rely on us.

                You rock!! Made me laugh out loud looking at your reflection in the glass. Outside our media center is the trophy case and everytime I walk to the office, I eyeball myself in the trophy case.

                Great job!

                              hitting onederland is possibly the best feeling next to hitting goal. you can bet when I do everyone I know will be absolutely sick of me babbling about how happy I am!
