One year ago today, I weighed in at 291lbs (5'6") and I felt like crap. My goal was 145 and when I weighed in today... well, I guess somebody loves me because I weighed in at *drumroll please* 144.6!!!! HOLY CRAP!! I'm soo happy. Thats a a total loss of 147lbs in just 12 months, gone forever!!! And I feel fantastic (well, I have a bit of a cold at the moment ) I started off in a tight size 24, I'm now in anywhere from a 6-14 (sizes should really be standardized) I was a 40 DD, I'm now a 34-36 B-ish... not sure how I feel about that. I wish I was a bit more emotional, so I could say I cried when I saw the scale today, but all I did was jump around and do a little dance. It was kind of embarassing because I was in the middle of Sears (I refuse to buy my own scale when I can go there and use one, lol) I know I'm rambling and I wish I had something profound to say but... wow, I'm just so friggin happy. I hope to get some pix up soon. I'd also like to say thank you to everyone here on OH, I may be a bit of a lurker but I'm almost always around and I love reading everyone else's stories. SOOO HAPPY!! Ashes 291/145/144.6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ashes - Your enthusiasm is contagious--I'm SO happy for you! I had hoped to hit 136 at my one year anniversary date but I'm thrilled with 138! And hey, quit lurking and jump on board! We all need the continued support! XO, Sandy

Ashley- Congrats! Thanks for the giggle.....imagining you dancing around the isles in Sears was amusing. I am also 1 year out the 20th. What a year it has been. I am a couple of lbs below my goal so, that is good. Keep up the great work and keep smilin" and dancin' !!!! Teri
