MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ME........

Well as of this morning I can officially say I weigh less than the amount of weight I've lost.......so I'm actually literally half the person I used to be!!!
This is soooooo exciting, I have been stuck in a 6 month long "plateau" in which I seemed to lose and gain the same 5-10 lbs over and over and over again and but hadn't been able to lose a single lb or fraction of a lb below what I weighed in mid june and finally this last month I started kicking my own butt again and got myself back on track with eating and working out and got that darn scale moving!!
I am now finally in the 140's again! Haven't been this low since I was 21 (12 long years ago) and now I am only 10.6 lbs away from my goal weight. It really is like a dream come true. I can't believe that all this happened so "quickly"......I mean it's been almost 2 years so it's taken awhile but really now when I think back the time has flown by.
I am so excited about this.....I feel like this is the best thing to happen to me in a long time......and you know what I did it! I mean no one else could make me eat right or exercize and in general just give me my life/health back.....so on this day I like to say MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ME!!!

There is no one thing that got me close to my goal by itself, it was a mix of eating right, exercizing, dedication to logging in and never missing a day (I'm at almost 600 days on MFP) and I couldn't have done it without all the support of my hubby, friends, family and ya'll on MFP!!0 -
