Not a WOW, but kind of a "golly" moment

Just wanted to share something I thought was sort of funny.

As my goal is to be between 250 and 280, getting below the 300 mark is sort of my "onederland".  I've been looking forward to hitting that mark for awhile now, but have been stuck at 308 since early November.

Long story short, I, and everyone else who attended my friend's Thanksgiving dinner, came down with a bad bout of food poisoning.  After 2 days of being trapped in the bathroom I got on the scale yesterday to find myself weighing 299.

Needless to say, after spending 24 hours drinking fluids and eating normally again I weighed myself and found I'd gone back up to 302.  Not complaining, as I rehydrate I'm sure I'll get closer to where I was.

That said...it just pointed out how close I am to one of the major milestones I set for myself...!

Damn Don. That's a cruel way to get to that great number. Hang in there cause your body will let go soon!

I think it is a daily WOW, instead of a lifetime WOW.  Soon, it will be a BIG WOW!  Congrats on the continued success; sorry it was due to food poisoning . . .

Well....... Congrats Don......I guess......?  Not the best way to get there, but hey - we take what we can get, right!   At least now you can truly visualize that scale in your Onderland - I bet you get back there and past it fast!  Be well!!!
