I finally can brag! I hit 50 pounds lost as of yesterday and am so proud! I have had people judge me for starting out my weight loss journey with the aid of a diet pill and it caused me to be bitter and stop my weight loss journey. I came to the conclusion that it shouldn't ever matter. I used them for a month to get started and then continued doing my healthy eating, my diet plans, my exercising almost 5 times a week and my working on my emotional well being as well. I may not do things like everyone else but I also don't jump off cliffs just because everyone else does either ;) I have hit my 50 pound loss mark and couldn't be prouder! I even have managed to be on this site for 50 days in a row as well! Two big accomplishments :)) So this isn't just a brag notch in my book, it's also a booyah and haha to all the haters and judgmental wanna-be perfectionists out there who think they are better than me just because I do things different than they do :D I and no one else lost this weight. I worked my *kitten* off and get to see the amazing results. I'm down to a size 12 in pants, from an original size 18 and I feel soooo much more confident :))))
So yay me! Thanks for letting me rave :D (And rant)

*Beckie*

    Awesome Job. Diet pills are fine as long as you figure out how to move on without them. Congratulations!!! I can't imagine how you feel. I have lost 25 pounds so far and I feel great!!! Keep it up!
