I CRIED
:cry: when I weighed myself this morning. I was down another pound. I couldn't believe it when the scale said 145.8! I don't remember the last time I weighed 145. I know there's a .8 there and officially that makes it 146 but I don't care. I saw that 145 and started crying. I was just so happy and overwhelmed to see it.…

ONE WEEK = SUCCESS! = HAPPINESS & ENCOURAGEMENT
OK so it's only been about a week since I started this. I got serious about working out, going 4x this week, serious about cutting out bad food. I'm still not on a strict diet but I cut out all the bad stuff and tried to incorporate more good stuff. Today before I worked out I decided to weigh myself even though I didn't…

I'm only half way to my goal, but I must be smaller than I've been for quite some time because I just went deep into my closet to find my skinny pants, and they all fit. Ok, a couple things are still just a bit snug, but not bad at all. I love, love, love MFP!!!

Yay! They fit!
I adore boots, but they've always been an enemy of mine because my ankles/calves never fit them. I had a pair that I really loved, and wore them even though I could only zip them halfway up (it was always hidden by jeans). But then when I gained more weight I had to stop wearing them altogether because I couldn't zip them…

I'm wearing "that" shirt today.
You know. The one that didn't fit right when you bought it. You wore it a few times just because you felt obligated to. Then put it back on the hangar to wear "someday" when you got smaller. Today is Someday. I'm wearing that shirt today. I like the way it fits. It's a little tight around the arms so my biceps and triceps…

So I went to the Halloween store today looking for a costume for work. The store I work for is doing a Wizard of Oz Theme for Halloween, I found the Tin Woman costume that was plus sized and went to try it on. The thing kept falling off me. It was way too big in the chest and waist and just a bit big in the hips which is a…

Okay this isn't so much a success as a proud moment
I haven't worn shorts in years, other than around the house. If I leave the house, I'm in slacks or jeans. I think I was probably 23 the last time I wore shorts. (I'm 28 now.) After highschool, I wasn't very active. I went from vollyball player and marching band to eating and watching tv! Since I've gotten back on track,…

Couldn't help but smile when...
I was at a doctor's appointment today and when the nurse called me in the first thing she did was tell me to step on the scales. I proceeded to set my purse down and emptied a set of keys from my pocket. I told her every little bit helps. I stepped on the scales and she said, "Yeah, every little bit helps, like you need…

Uber obsession with this site????
Ok, I'm totalllly obsessed with this site. I started a month and a half ago thinking that it would be another fluke, but I LOVE IT! I had to learn to approximate calories burned (I don't think an hour of rollerblading burns 800 calories :noway: ) and tweak calories eaten, but in the bigger picture, it has been extremely…

Today, a girl who I work with brought in for all of us a tray of her special goodies that she bakes....fudge, truffles, cookies, muffins,....just because! I resisted all day. After supper tonight, and after an arguement with my teenage son, I was alone in the house, and I had an overwhelming urge to eat something,…

The wedding picture and the shower picture (the worst!!) are from Oct 2008. The new picture in Disney is from a few weeks ago... the end of Aug 2009. Almost there! :drinker:
