Yes people...as of today, despite the interference of the stupid TOM!! (time of month)......and being pretty bloated and eating chinese food last night.......I am down another 1.5 lbs....which makes it 90 total!!!! NINETY!!!

LOL I am kind of in shock....I mean....WOAH!! That's a lot of darn weight!!! This was done in 9 months and I didn't starve myself either. I didn't suffer. I didn't miss out. I enjoyed life with my friends and family... I ate a good Thanksgiving meal, I had a hearty Christmas Day meal, I even ate some junk on Super Bowl Sunday!! AND I had a margarita and a few chips and guacamole this past Friday night. And I have gone to a few bbq's and ate a burger and even a brownie!! LOL! GASP!!

I guess my point is that you don't have to munch on lettuce the rest of your life to have success with weight loss. Just incorporate it into your day, plan for it...exercise, and don't go CRAZY, and you will be ok!! Life get's in the way of our "healthy lifestyle" sometimes....but even junk and fun food CAN be a part of a healthy lifestyle if it's in moderation and you are accountable for it.

Take care all!!!

    Totally awesome!!!!!:drinker: :drinker: You have been an inspiration for me and many others on this site so kudos to you!!!! Just like you I have learned that I don't have to be on a permanent "diet". I just have to modify my lifestyle and make better choices. I have learned so much since starting this weight loss journey and finally my husband has recently been exercising and getting off the couch!!! Now the competition is on!

    Keep on going Tami, you look great!!!!

    Thank you everyone!! I appreciate the support!!! I KNOW all of you can reach your goals too!!!

    I have uploaded my before pic again. I had it up there for awhile...but it's in my photos again. I am with my hubby and my son who was around 9 months old at the time. I didn't take many pics back in those days! I would avoid any camera and then try and "hide"....like a 9 month old could have hid me! :laugh: :laugh:

    Anyway, it's there!!! That was from last August...about a month before I started my journey.

    Heading to the gym!! Be back a little later!! MUAHH!!! :smooched: :smooched:

    Congratulations, Tam! What an awesome accomplishment. Next time you are at the grocery store, just load 9 big bags of potatos into your shopping cart & push it a lap around the store. That's what you have lost! Cowabunga! Way to go!
