My husband found this beautiful poem for the collage of before/after/during pics he made for my 100 lb lost party. I will include a link to the blog I posted too with pics for those interesed.
Weight loss is a journey – tackle it in stages.
Some may get there very quick, whilst others may take ages.
Weight loss is a journey, some take the stopping train,
And they get off at the station, and then get back on again.
While other lucky people seem to travel by express,
With no apparent effort, each week they weigh in less.
For some of us the journey, too often seems uphill.
We never seem to get that far, struggle though we will.
Weight loss is a journey – anyone can go
But as you travel on your way there’s something you should know.
Losing weight’s a journey that different for everyone,
Some are happy to stroll along while others need to run.
If you want to complete this journey, then forget about the rest.
Each of you must travel the way that suits you best.
As long as you believe it, you WILL get there some day,
And so what does it matter if you’ve gone the pretty way?
Weight loss is a journey, that certainly is true,
And each of you must travel in the way that best suits YOU.
You’ll make much better progress if you go at your own pace.
‘Cos weight loss is a journey – and NEVER is a race

I am embarking on my weight loss journey and many times it is an uphill battle, but I am taking it in small stages (I think losing 5 - 10 lbs at a time is good for now). I have 60 to lose. I know our weight loss journeys are individual and we get there when we get there. Kudos to you on your 100 lb weight loss! You look wonderful in your photos. Your weight loss has inspired me.
