Half way there!!

I just wanted to share my small victory with all of you!
Today I am half way to my goal weight!! Woo hoo!!
I have been pretty diligent about measuring and weighing food, not eating back all of my deficit, drinking lots of water, not indulging in junk or booze too much, enjoying NSVs, and the best gift of all, increasing my activity level after being very ill and pretty much bedridden for most of the winter!!
Over this past weekend, I got to see many people that I haven't seen since I was in the throes of my illness, and received comments like, "You are just GLOWING!", "You look fantastic!". They don't know that I've been reducing, but that's ok, they see the happiness of life shining from my heart!
I encourage all of you to forgive your body, if you ever felt you hated it, it did the best it could. I encourage you to nourish yourself with love and compassion, and healthy choices.
We can do this!!!
