    October: 3 pounds lost!

    I am so proud of myself for finding a plan that finally works for me and for sticking to it. My breathing issues, feet and ankles swelling and just overall exhaustion are gone with the 37.2 pounds I have kicked to the curb since starting this journey on April 29, 2012! Now I just want to keep right on kicking the next 123.2 pounds and smashing it against the wall.

    Count me in, I've been way too slack since the wedding and I'm disappointed to have put weight back on. But nevermind, I've lost it before and I'm sure I can do it again!
