Good Morning everyone!!!!!!
Today I OFFICIALLY hit the century mark.... weighing in at 149 -- a total loss of 101 lbs!!!!!!!! I am so excited.... and proud... this is such an awesome feeling!!!
When I first began my journey I was 250 lbs, wearing a size 24. And now -- JUNIORS: 7/9 Bottoms, L/XL tops (stupid redundant skin...) -- MISSES 6/8 Bottoms, S/M tops (In the Petite section!!! I don't think I would have ever refered to myself as PETITE!!!!)
I looked at old pictures of me this morning... and I didn't even recognize the person in the photograph.
I am 9 pounds away from my personal goal of 140! And just .6 of a point away from NORMAL BMI!! (Current BMI: 25.6) I don't think I've EVER had a normal BMI. Come to think of it, I've NEVER worn a single-sized peice of clothing, and I've definately NEVER been in the 140's!!
Just wanted to share my excitement!! Hope everyone has a wonderful day!!!!!!

Hi CJ!
Congratulations girl! I know how long you have been working at this goal and how thrilled you must be! Wooohoooo! I have no doubt in my mind you will get to your other goal of 140 in no time! You must look awesome! We need some pics!
I am sorry I have not had the time to respond to your email! Shame on me! I have been so busy remodeling our bathroom and with the boys, etc etc...you know how it is! So that bed and pillow look pretty good when nighttime falls. But I WILL email you! I am so happy for you! Just for a quick FYI- We are all doing awesome over here and could not be happier! Have you heard from Bethany? I only here of her through you now......I hope she is ok!
Anyway! Go celebrate and do something special for yourself! You deserve it! I'll talk to you soon! Wait until you get into that sexy wedding dress! Wooohooo!
