Wooooot Wooot ~ Hoooonk Hooooonk ~ Toooot Tooooot~~ I am so excited this morning!!!!!!!!!!! :laugh:
I can't believe that I have set a goal and actually reached it!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have never done that before!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel like a new woman! A woman on a mission!! :bigsmile:
THANK YOU for all of your support, your encouragement, your inspiration..... :drinker:
on days I'm feeling low I always go into the success story community and look at your stories and your before/after pictures and it keeps me going, I think "if they can do it, I can do it to" and it keeps me going..... Look where it has gotten me!! 22 lbs gone!! I am in AWWWWWWWWWWW!!! I don't feel a ton different, and I don't think its really noticeable yet.... but someday, somebody is gonna walk up to me and say, "WOW Stac, you look good!" :blushing:
Thanks again for believing in me, and believing in yourselves, and for being here on MFP!!!!!!!!!!!! I am blessed to call you my friends!! :flowerforyou:
I set my first goal for Nov. 4th ~ 180lbs because that is our Anniversary. As much as I know my Husband loves me, I know he would prefer I not weigh 202lbs... so as much as it was planned for a gift for me, it is a gift for him also.... I now have set Nov.4th to be 175lbs. I'm not sure I can get there.... but I know it will be close!! We love to go stay at a Motel called "Stoney Creek Inn" in Des Moines.... this year our daughters paid for our stay there as our gift, so we are even more excited!! Our reservations are for the following weekend, Nov. 13th and I KNOW I can be 175lbs that day!!!!! I'm sure we will celebrate!! We've been married 15 yrs!!! :drinker: this day and age, its like 50 yrs..... too many marriages are being treated as being disposable with the young couples! Marriage is def not easy, but so worth all the hard work!! :wink:
