Topic: RE: Ideas needed for celebrating 100lbs lost!
Hmmm, interesting...
a tatoo incorporating the number 100?
one of those gold cards to add to your OH signature?
spending $100 on yourself at a salon/spa....new hair, mani, pedi, facial
I like the 100 jelly bean idea to give to your friends, I think it's really good to include other people in your sucess. People who love you want to celelbrate with you!

Topic: Kids Say The Darndest Things
Back to the things people say from last week (which I loved this thread). Went out to see the kids who grew up on my school bus and always knew the "BIG" me. Haven't seen Little Miss Melissa since surgery, she's now in 4th grade, who looks at me and says, "Huh, you look different. Your face isn't so round, you look just like Cruella Deville!" Thanks Miss Melissa for noticing I no longer go by my imposed childhood nickname of the Staypuff Marshmellow (Ghostbusters). This is the reason I go to work everyday, the kids make me laugh, I love my job!

I bought myself a pair of six 16 gap jeans. Though you will need a 14
Congrats Jean.
Topic: RE: Ideas needed for celebrating 100lbs lost!
Yea! I'm only 3 lbs away myself and have been thinking the same thing. I was thinking:
100 sugar free jelly beans for each of my co-workers because they're shaped like the 5lb rubber fat sample from the doctor's office as well as a healthier alternative to the crap they keep trying to feed me
100 balloons for my bus that the kids could take with them as they've walked my journey with me - NOT PRACTICAL
100 flowers sent to myself because I've worked so hard and should smell something prettier than workout sweat at the end of the day
100 deep breaths as I'm almost to goal
100 jumping jacks I haven't done since I was 6 to kick off my last 13 lbs
Come on everyone I know you have celebration plans, let's hear them!
