A Funny Thing Happened On My Way To My Taxes!

On Monday when I went to have my taxes done it was so funny because my accountant walked past me twice to go outside to have a cigarette. I could not figure out why I was waiting so long and she was outside smoking--when I finally said something she was shocked! Her reaction was OMG--I did not recognize you! Here I was waiting for you to show up and you were here all the time! Certainly made me feel good! Marianne 265/170/130?

This is a great story---- sometimes it takes someone who hasn't seen us in awhile to make us realize how far we have come!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Victoria

Hi Marianne - Great story! I was noticing that our stats were similar. My new "birthday" was 9/20/04, I started at 268, a few pounds more than you, and this morning I was exactly at 170! I see your "goal" is 130, and I have a feeling you are taller than me. I'm 5'2". As far as my goal, I'm first aiming for 136 because that will put me at the tip top of the normal BMI range. I want to be there so bad I can almost taste it, no pun intended! Eventually I'm aiming for low to mid-120's. Are you exercising? I'm going 6 days a week to the gym and taking a class or doing 30-45 minutes on the elliptical. My weight loss has actually slowed down since I started exercising, go figure! By the way, your updated photo is beautiful! Keep up the good work girl! HUGS, Sandy

That is to funny. You must have felt pretty great. Sometimes when my Dh and I are shopping he will walk away to do something and then walk past me over and over trying to find me. One time he got real mad cause he thought I left and I was standing right next to him. He noticed our daughter and that's how he realized it was me. LOL Shannon
