Hi all,

Topic: Yippy - another 5lbs for a total of -146.5!!
I try to celebrate every 5lbs because it keeps me motivated... at this time in my journey I try to do everything I can to get excited about the journey... I set little goals for myself constantly so I keep my motivation going.
This month my goal was to lose the weight I regained (I was initially about 155 and I gained 20lbs). As of today, I am at 158 and feeling great!! I have lost 17lbs of the 20 I regained and am still moving strong.
Another goal I had was to play hockey again (for the first time in 11 years) and with a lot of self-motivation and pushing, I got myself on a women's team. There were a few moments where I almost convinced myself otherwise, but now I am so happy I did it!!
Here are some before/after photos and a photo of me playing hockey. :-)

I apologize for not making it to coffee last weekend. When Kelly texted me that she wasn't feeling well, and wouldn't be coming, I admit I used the time to get the kids hair cuts before our family photo. I felt bad for ditching out, but the photos turned out great!!
I just wanted to make sure that coffee was at Byerly's in Eagan this weekend, and if anyone was going? Due to recent heart issues I've been having, I'm lucky to get four hours of sleep a night, but I'm willing to sacrifice that if anyone will be there.
I could use seeing some smiling supportive faces after the last week I've had.
I hope to see some friendly faces on Saturday morning.
