New Years

Happy New Years everyone! Its amazing, last year I wasn't even thinking about losing weight and now here I am, almost 9 months out from surgery and 136 lbs lighter. (From a 28 pant to a 14 pant, from a 12W shoes to a 11 Reg... the list goes on) It hasn't always been easy, but thankfully it wasn't nearly as hard as I thought it would be. I had hoped that I would be at my 70% goal by the end of the year but unless I lose 4 lbs today, that ain't gonna happen. But how much can I complain about "only" losing 69% of my excess weight in under 9 months. I think that I can manage to go into the New Year with a smile on my face. Next year is about other things, hopefully to focus less on my weight and more on the things that I have been missing out on b/c of the weight. All my friends have been sending me Christmas cards with all their husbands and kids on them and I send them one with....just me. I believe that I will consider that in the coming year. How is everyone else feeling about the New Year? Feeling hopeful about 2006? Have any regrets about 2005? At any rate, I want to wish everyone a very Happy, Healthy 2006!

Hey Christine, Happy New Year to you and congratulations on all of your success. Your looking good there girlfriend. Take care and god bless. Keep up the good work. I am so glad I had the opportunity to meet you, your a sweetie. Hugs Kim
