Who would have thunk it?

This journey is full of so many emotions good and bad. I have gone thru so many changes...physically, emotionally, and oh so mentally. One isnt any easier than the other.  However, if I had the opportunity to do it different, the only thing I would do different is not wait until I am OVER 40 to do it.  

Starting Weight: 362
Current Weight: 161
Weight loss: 201....unbelievable
 
Starting dress size(didnt own pants)32
Current pant size: solid 10 some 8....again unbelievable

I dont know why I am so damn emotional over this...STILL. but I am wiping away tears as I type. All I know is that when you weigh almost 400 pounds..weighing 1 anything is an accomplishment...one to be very proud of.  One that I am proud of. This is not an easy road to travel...never is it easy.

All  I really want to say to EVERY woman and man on BAF is that you guys have inspired me beyond words.  Being on BAF is like going to your sisters house and gossiping and laughing about the family. You guys are my family...bottom line. You understand this journey better than anybody.  If I signed on one day and BAF wasn't here....WOW. Cant imagine

Goals for 2009
1. To run Chicago Half Marathon
2.  To average out at 150
3.  To have PS
4.  To dance like nobody is lookin'(tennesse cutie)

Smooches to everybody

I have never met you but you got me over here being emotional.  Your journey is amazing and truly inspirational.  I'll be praying for you on that marathon.  Congratulations...2 years and counting my sister.
