I posted a topic few weeks ago about a reunion I am having February 26th with a bunch of friends & people I havent seen since highschool.We are having a night out on the town of drinks, food & dancing.:bigsmile:

I am currently at 214.6lbs down from 232lbs. I am down a total of 17.4lbs :bigsmile:

Anyway, I am getting very excited! The last time most of these people saw me I was at my heaviest of 250lbs which was in 2000. Then I got back down to 155lbs in 2005 but then back up to 232lbs in 2008 after the birth of my son. So ive been stuck around 232lbs for 2 years now.

My goal is 30-40lbs by February 26th. I want to be able to go shopping & get a really nice outfit to show off my new figure. I want people to be like "WOW"!!

I know I can do this, im already down 17.4lbs! Im not seeing a difference in jeans yet but my face is thinner & my legs are begining to swell down & ive gone down a size in my bra (thank the lord!!! lol) I used to have gorgeous legs from playing soccer for 13 years but when I hit my highest of 250lbs they basically became all fat. I want my gorgeous legs back!!

There will be an ex-boyfriend at this reunion. I am happily in love with my fiance who ive been with for 9 years. But I want this ex to look at me & wonder why he ever gave me up LOL. I want the feeling of "look at me now!!" :laugh:

I know I still have a long road ahead of me to get to my goal of 150lbs but I know in time it will happen! February 26th is just 4 months away, hopefully I can accomplish at least 30lbs:huh:

    I started out at 234 lbs this April and I am now down to 171 lbs so I was in the same boat you are in. It isn't easy but keep up the good work and you will definitely impress them at the reunion. I can tell you from experience that the toughest critic is yourself and everyone else will notice the change sooner than you realize it yourself. By the way I love your tracker, I can't wait for Breaking Dawn! :-)

    I hear ya! And I'm so confident that you'll reach your goal f you keep doing the awesome work you're doing now.
    Down over 17 lbs - that's amazing!!

    I see you're a Twilight fan. Hey, if Taylor Lautner can change his body around in such a short period of time, we ALL can!

    Here's to turning heads at your reunion!!!
