I am no longer OBESE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(just overweight--lol)

I started this process almost two years ago and stalled out about a year ago. I didn't gain/didn't lose. Last month, I got with it and started doing my food diary (almost every day) and exercising about five days a week. I FINALLY met one of my short term goals!!

This is "just in time" as I leave for Hawaii Tuesday morning to celebrate my 25th wedding anniversary and I'm glad to have another reason to celebrate--a healthier me!

    Fantastic. I hate that word. I am so proud of you getting below that mark. I can't wait to celebrate that milestone. Good job, keep the goal of good health and get as far away from that line as possible.

    Thanks everyone! Last computer check in--heading out in the morning and I'm cutting all ties with technology for two weeks :). This is a very special time--I lost my mom to cancer when she was 46 a DAY before she celebrated her 25th wedding anniversary with my Dad and they didn't get to go to Hawaii as planned. I'm celebrating for more than just us.

    AND celebrating the fact that I have an opportunity that she didn't have--to live.

    Mahalo!
