Well, today has been 6 months ago I was lying in that bed, miserable, lol. but I did it. I made it through those miserable first few weeks, and days and months. Now, 113 lbs are gone forever. I started at 360, at 5'4. Now at 247. Hard to believe. I still have about 75 lbs to go to goal. Should I be discouraged? Should I get upset? lately, the weight is coming back off again, I had gone through about a 2 wk period of a stand still, (man I hate those) plus, it doesnt help that I need to have a couple of teeth fixed, and am waiting for insurance crap. Hard to eat when it hurts. But yes, I do eat some regular food, that I probably shouldnt! why? cuz it tastes good, and I know I CAN! ughugh ugh ANyhow. looking back, and looking ahead. I need to make some more changes. Stick to a good diet. Find the time to make and eat the good foods again. Its worth it, I am worth it! well, My article in the DM Register STILL has not printed, which really PI***ES me off . of course they know nothing down there. well, I will go now.Just wanted everyone to know whats up with me. I have a newer pic, but I cant figure out how to get it on here. I did send it in. maybe you can only have 2 pics? Weird. well, take care all! Happy losing Judi

Way to go Judi! Don't feel bad... this lifestyle change isn't always a bed of roses! We all have up and down days. I've found that the less I weigh myself the better. That way I avoid the daily ups and downs and can focus on the overall loss. 113 pounds in 6 months is a tremendous change- hard to adjust both physically and mentally. I think the weight comes off so fast that our minds don't catch up with our bodies until way down the road. You have to look at yourself in the mirror enough times and remember how you USED to look as compared to now before you believe the change! You will get back on track and attack those last 75# with a vengence!
