Ok here goes honestly.
I feel like i haven't done as much as i can possibly, i don't have money for the gym and i know i need more excercise, i know i do there is no way around that.  Money is so tight and i want a WII but that isn't happening, i have been doing some crunches and such in my house in the morning and i always try to park further away from the store and hoof it.
I have found my self cheating some and it makes me angry I do eat crackers,pasta and rice but all in brown forms and still makes me guilty even though i have talked about it with my NUT and she said i was fine like tonight i had whole wheat spaghetti maybe at most one oz of it, but i heard so many ppl being so harsh on it makes me feel like i shouldn't eat it, but don't think i go the rest of my life without it they are not trigger foods for me sweets are. I love sweets but trying hard to ignore them at all cost. Part of me misses being able to go into a store and just pick up a snack like the rest of the family i have to really think about it now and read the labels. Oh well!

I still see the fat girl in the mirror no matter how many people tell me i look great. Like tonight my mom told me she coulndn't believe how skinny i was getting and i was like what ever i still weigh 246 but better than the 329 i started out at, however i still see the 329 in the mirror.  I think it is just my mind set i have always been the funny fat girl. hopefully that will change in my head soon.
Other than that i like that i can walk across the parking lot and not have to stop to breathe, love that i weigh less than my husband for the first time since we met in 1995, I think it is funny how close i can get my seat in the car now to my steering wheel lol.  I have no regrets i miss tons of things but those things only held me back in life now i can go forward in a healthier way and not look back.
MY BIGGEST FEAR??  GAINING THE WEIGHT BACK!!!!! I never want to go back ever!

I think I will copy your plan.  I am a big believer is not denying myself.  I find that a small bite is all it takes to satisfy myself and shut up the crazy voices that scream inside my head to eat that food. 

Ashley, I've read that many who have gone through this......that when their hair grows back, it grows back curly???  Who knows, if that's true.  Mine is already wavy, so I don't know if they mean, curly curly or just wavier??  Of course, I realize it is probably not the same for everyone.  Hopefully, it'll work in your favor  :-)

LOL!! or just be glad to jog 1 mile!!  I gotta get back and focus.. Mrs. Illinois is gaining on me LOL!! I wish you continued success!!
