I got to my goal today!!!

Congratulations Brenda, Your hard work & perserveriance have paid off. I am looking forward to joining you on the loosers bench. Best wishes on your 20th also!

Linda, thanks so much for the lovely words. I am looking forward to you joining us on the bench too. It is a comfy place to sit and rest while you taking your wonderful road trip! Best of luck to you on your way to the road trip of your life. I wish the best for you.

What wonderful news, Brenda. Congratulations on your anniversary, and what a glorious day for you -- you've worked so hard, and you really made it! Yey!!!!! We could dance a little together if I were there, but I'll do a little happy dance and shout for you here. You're amazing!

Marilyn,thanks for the congratulations on the weight loss and the wedding anniversary. It was kind of funny today. Bill and I was sitting on the swing and I said to him that there has been so many changes this year. I said that I thought that there is some changes he likes and some he doesn't and he agreed but he wouldn't tell me what changes he didn't like. I wonder what they are.......hmmmm. He is one of my greastest cheerleaders that I know for sure.

Yeah Brinda!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I have been there.  It was a long wait for me as well.  A word of advice.  Now that you have made it, don't go back on the scale for a long time because it usually gets stuck again or sometimes pops up and to me that doesn't count because it can be water or anything.  Now is the time to star****ching your clothes and not the scale.  You have seen the end of the 200's and you will never go back.  Soon you will be buying your clothes in normal stores  it just keeps getting better and you will find yourself haveing more and more energy so you will move more and it is all good.  I am so happy for you.

Thanks for the words of advice. I know that it has been up and down some of the time. I can retain water easy because of the heart problems. The tenth of a pounds doesn't bother me either. I do see a difference in my clothes. I am in a 8-10 pants, 14 jeans but the tops are another story. The girls just need to be rolled up and tucked, I just want them to go away!!!!! I have so much more energy and I love my new and wonderful life.
