If you will direct your attention to my ticker, you will see that I have, as of this morning, LOST 70 POUNDS!

THAT IS 1/2 WAY TO MY GOAL!!!!!!!! yupi3ti.gifyupi3ti.gif

And, it is now exactly 6 months and 1 day since I joined MFP--thanks all of you for helping me get to this point!

I started dancing already and will be dancing all day! But I'll spare you the mental images of how I danced this morning after jumping off the scale! Just imagine a middle-age still-lot-to-lose woman bouncing off the walls doing my best imitation of HAMMER TIME! :tongue:

So, here's some of my fav--dancing bananas instead!

    Thanks, all!

    Just got home with my present to myself for making it 1/2 way--my new puppy! I didn't get the one I posted photos of the other day though. I went by Animal Control and they had a whole litter of Lab-mixes someone turned in. I picked out a cutie pie! She's 6 wks old and sweet as can be. Photos to come soon!

    You rock Shorerider.

    I am so happy to hear that you bought something inedible to reward your self for the effort. I have been too guilty of going out to eat my favorite high calorie food when celebrating. Lets keep subordinating food to life!

    Congrats again.

    Always reward yourself it gives you motivation i reward myself in someway when I hit a marker. I got to buy a fancy after 5 dress last week and that was my big reward but when i get to my ultimate goal i get a new waredrobe and I get to buy a formal dress and go out to the theatre.
