    Hoping everyone finds this new page!

    I was looking at pictures of me from about 16 years ago. Was heavy then, lost 50 for about 1 1/2 years, gained most of it back. Looking at that picture, I said - this woman doesn't live here anymore, and she's not allowed to come back, either!

    Let's finish these last 10 days strong, people!!!!:glasses:

    Haven't had a chance to exercise in 4 days. It sucks. I finally found my really good scale which is very accurate and it showed I was reading lower than my other scale so I am sure I haven't lost as much as I am posting but I am going with it. :) Honestly I would use this scale even if my weight was going up.

    I was on vacation for over a week and decided to do a diet break, because my body seemed to be holding on. I still managed to lose, if even a little bit, so I'm happy. My loss is slow, and I'm not sure I'll make my 5 pounds, but I'm happy with my progress.

    8/31:

    Yay I hit goal for the month! I am really proud of myself because after having an awful Monday (I won't go into detail) I felt like all the work I had been doing for the past year didn't matter so what was the point of continuing. I actually tried to give up but I couldn't! My body craved all the healthy food I've been putting in it more than the crap food I use to eat. Now I'm not saying I don't enjoy my junk every now and then but I just couldn't believe that even after telling myself it was okay to give up, I found it nearly impossible. 10 more pounds and I will hit 100 pounds lost!!
