Reason to keep going

Had a revelation this morning taking the 3 flights up to my desk. I've lost 30 lbs exactly now since my journey started in April of 2009 (haven't been with this site that long though). Anyway...feeling so good with that much-actually have about 40 more to go to be in a healthy range for my heigth. I was carrying up my purse and my & hubby's lunch bucket (extra stuff in it today). Was puffing pretty good when I got to the top and thought...wow how much must this thing weigh? It weighed 14 lbs - and then I thought-wow-that is only 1/2 of the weight I was carrying around...think how much better yet I'm going to feel when the rest is gone! This has definatly given me more incentive than ever to keep this journey on course...so loving my new healthy lifestyle!

    My fave event on the biggest loser so far has been where they carry a golf club bag that weighs as much as they have lost! What a victory!
