MOVE OVER, CONNIE, I'M A HAPPY GIRL TOO! :rofl:

Well, after weeks and weeks of slower-than-molasses weight loss, I lost 7 lbs. in 5 days this week. I HAVE LOST 51 LBS!!! Just now starting to see the difference but more important really beginning to feel the difference. It's unbelievable to me that I spent the last 18 years of my life, weighing anywhere between 330 and 400 lbs. and I'm now in the 280s!! Please, everyone, don't do the daily despair thing. Ride out the hard times and the periods of doubt by doing something good for yourself, or for someone else. Anything to get out of your head...here's my latest mantra -- GET OUT OF YOUR HEAD SO YOU CAN GET OUT OF YOUR WAY!! You WILL lose your weight and in just a few months, we're all going to be doning Mo's happy dance so hard that the entire World Wide Web will experience a major virtual earthquake!! Hang in there, everyone. And if you can't for whatever reason and for however long, we're here for you, and for each other. God bless and be well. Maureen

Maureen, You brought a big ol' huge grin to my face. Happiness loves company. I love your mantra and am stealing it for myself. lol You go girl! You're the bomb Connie - the other happy girl
