Not too late for that New Year's resolution!

In 2009, I lost 63 pounds. My resolution for 2010 was to get myself into a normal BMI range for the first time in my life and maybe (just maybe) a single digit dress size. That is 5'8" and 164, size 8. It actually seems pretty reasonable.

Well, I started out this year at 179 and now a third of the way through the year, I find myself at 183 and still in those old size 12s. This is not where I intended to be right now. Things have changed with my jobs (I have 3) and my schedule, and this just has gotten harder. But really, there isn't any reason I can't do this.

So, this is my public re-commitment to that New Year's resolution. I've got 32 weeks and 19 pounds to lose. It is not too late and I am REALLY gonna do this thing!

    Congratulations on the 60lbs that is AWESOME. And you can do this! Here's my favorite quote: "Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts." - Winston Churchill :flowerforyou:
