Shhhh... I don't want to jinx this but...

This morning when I weighed myself, my scales read 198#!!!!!! I guess it decided to totally jump over 200 but I'm not complaining. I expected it to be up as we went to a wedding yesterday & at the reception I ate "normal" food & even had a small piece of cake & a few sips of root beer (I'm sure it was not diet, either.) Getting ready for the wedding was a challenge. I don't wear dressy clothes very often & forgot that I may not have anything that fits. I just figured I'd wear the dress I wore at my son's wedding last April. WRONG! Even with the belt tightened, it just hung. That's when I pulled a garage sale dress out. It fit kind of OK but I'll have to take it in a bit if I ever wear it again. It was kind of sloppy. Oh, and I didn't wear a slip. Mom would have been scandalized if she were alive but I no longer have one. I just hung onto my skirt in the wind so I didn't flash anyone. Thanks Angela, for all you sweet encouraging notes. They really helped. 155#, here I come! Dixie

Way to go Dixie! Aren't those milestones great! And I know what you mean about not wanting to jinx it. It's a love-hate relationship with the scale. Just when you think it will never move again, you just breeze right by the next goal! You are doing great! Lyn

Congratssssssssssss Dixie!!! You'll be at your goal before ya know it!!! Seems like when the scales get a moving again, the pounds start to fly off! Sounds like you had a great time...You deserve it!!! Have a great day, Janet Schmidt

Dixie, great job, I bet you was really excited when you got on there and it was under 200 lbs. i remember when it happen to me i was kinda slow i was talking to someone and telling them and i looked at them they were telling how great i was doing. i came home and sat down and i called my mom and said mom omg i am under 200 she is like duh you a little slow there darling. now that was 3 days after i told her. but i have to remember that was at the time of my mom being in and out of the hospital and my grandma's surgery. so i am using that as my excuse as being a little slow...or i was just in shock...I know it is a great feeling!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep up the great work you are doing......lynda
